Driving like a Hero?
Easy repair really not much to it, what did the mini driver have to say?

How did it happen?

Love the way people always ask this lol.. I hit the back of a motor years ago when the idiot in front just decided last second (with some heavy braking) to let someone pull out of a joining road in front of him.. I was not best pleased!
Bad luck though mate should be a easy fix if you decide to tackle it by yourself
ACCIDENTS happen..
well, car infront of her brakes hard she breaks harder, i was to close wheels lock and then the dream was shattered. oh yeah it was wet road with mud on.

You gotta ask though
Im sure you will sort it mate, but like someone said above, dont go through insurance as it will prob be a right off, be a shame too.
Least your okay.
I wouldn't go through insurance for your repairs, they will 95% wright it off. I had similar damage and they wrote mine off
i cant anyway im a cheap skate with third party. but there is not thst much damage bonnet headlight wing grille bar on inside thats it.
lol, it WAS a nice car y reg 1.2 sport with 33,000 on the clock. but there is not loads of damage my dads mate quoted me £100 = parts. + i dont even need a new bumper lol, it looks scratched on the photo but that is mud lol.You gotta ask though

So you were driving too close to react to the situation and it's the guy in front who's an idiot? :S

That is cheap, was expecting more tbh, how soon do you plan to have it sorted?
2 weeks i think, but depends on how busy he is.
yeah i was looking on the interent and it only came to £191 brand new so but that it isnt including the sport headlight which is a quite a bit more than a standard one, but even then its still not a lotThats cool, should be able to replace the lot with used parts for around £200 i would think
Aye, it was a nice car, i just wanted to get a look close up, i think i got a bit to close.

Certainly not myself mate, I don't call hammering on the brakes to let someone pull out and me slamming into the rear me being slow to react, more being in shock that it happened
P.s. he admitted liability so I wasn't complaining
Oil Burner
You were still too close to stop though surely? Hence you hit him. If it was a kid he stopped for, you could have pushed him into the kid.
But still i bet 90% of drivers follow closer than they should for the conditions.

^^ How many people honestly leave a 2 second gap between cars while sitting in traffic..
This is how it unravelled.. Traffic was stand still due to some temp lights, lights go green 2 car ahead of me go through the lights, the car in front starts to pull away and so do I, next thing, brakes like a plonker cos he decided to let this car pull out of the turning, wallop, into the back, guy gets out saying nothing but sorry.
I could understand if i was sitting on the bumper of a car on a motorway or something, this was totally different in circumstances
Anyways this ain't about me, its about the OP, hope you get this sorted mate.. Not nice to see your pride and joy in a bad way!
