well it happend when me and my mate (dennisv6) were going to have a loook at something. there we were just flying around the back roads as u do on a sunday evening.when i came up behind a metro with a couple of stoners in from our town!!!!they were travling at about 30 mph and i was slowly getting anoyed with the driver coz it was a 50 limit!!!so after about 1/2 amile i decided to overtake and as i pulled out with my foot to the floor the stoned t"at turned in front of me to go in the layby no indicators!!!!and wrote my baby off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i had it 4 only a month!proper gutted.
he stiched me up good and proper!!no i was on the right side of the road well wrong side coz i was overtakin but as i got along side him he pulled in front of me and i took him out.
he did not claim whiplash.an ol boy i know (my neighbour) had words with him. it went 70/30 on insurance in his favour!! thank god i was fully comp!! but insurance has doubled£1600!
Think we worked out that about 150-200 had perished in the last 3 and a bit years, just over 2200 were bought and the last reasonably accurate data we got on here (how many were taxed this year) was just over 2000 if I remember correctly.
blimey i lost all my no claims!!that is s*£t. that was a quote from direct line just after it happened they just susspended my policy so i am still paying 760 ish!!bonus
Judging by the long unbroken skid marks in a straight line, It looks like a lack of ABS may have played a part in this - assuming of course the skid marks are from the clio!
