I can't believe the lampost fell to be honest. It's snapped rather than fell actually View attachment 145866
I presume she'll claim off me yeah
Good job that man!
Well impressed with your post, so you gave it a good stomp and caught out. Oh well, s**t happens.
Hope you get it resolved as painlessly as possible.
the lampost TRAPP made me LOL, you made a good job of that Vololvo
What's ironic, is mine actually was diesel on the roundabout.
My last experience with ambulance crew was shocking. I genuinely couldn't believe what I saw and heardFunny you should mention that. I wasn't impressed with the ambulance that attended.
Turned up, waked straight past me to the lady from the Volvo. Fine although they could have acknowledged me. She had been talking with us about being fine as you'd expect but they checked her over and took her into the ambulance for about half an hour, I'm not sure what was going on but she came out afterwards and never said anything to me about injuries. No problems they're doing the job.
They then mulled about for a bit until one of them asked me if the Mazda was my car, I said yes and he said "you alright?" To which I said yeah I think so, and that was that. They buggered off.
Now I'm not injured, I ache a bit today in my neck and arm but nothing to worry about. I just sort of assumed I'd be checked out.
T1Rs are the devil spawn of tyres tbf. The number of scrapped cars due to them must be fairly substantial.May I suggest we all blame nothing nothing nothing nothing boost + Toyo T1Rs?
Glad to hear you are ok mate.
Here is me, being Ironically Ironic taking out the 'Safe for Overtaking' sign.
I was going a bit faster on every lap, entered Quarry corner at a billion mph, got half way around, got on the throttle a bit too early and it snapped - I caught it one way, but it flung the opposite way quickly. I hit the brakes to let it spin in - at Combe you ALWAYS spin in.
Quite impressed myself, splintered the board into many, many pieces

Had the call this morning to confirm its a write off. Surprisingly though they asked me how much I wanted for it and agreed with my valuation, so I probably should have asked for more.
So the hunt for a 197 can begin!
I'm open to ideas but I fancy one at the moment. Budget of 5-6 grand for a car but insurance is my issue now. A 197 is getting up towards 2k to insure.Get something more cooler than a 197! :smiley:
Insurance gets expensive when claiming on your own policy as I found out this year , in the end it was cheaper to tell them it was modified (mapped diesel)I'm open to ideas but I fancy one at the moment.
