good point to be fair for a 50mph impact the car looks pretty straight

 

[rt172]

Noooooo, b*****d!

 

[iPap]

Hope you are OK, Id guess you were? Glad to see a Renault that held up well at that speed. Hope all your insurance and any damage to yourself is all sorted swiftly and smoothly!

 

[White16valver]

Thats a real sh*tter mate. You must have shed some speed to get away with that little damage surely? Especially after seeing Top Gear on Sunday! Either that or Renaults arent as bendy as I thought!

Hope you get it sorted quick.

 

[TD172]

Thats bloody awfull. God I hate people that pull out without looking. w**kers

 

[Rich-D]

After this Top Gear lark and NCAP...

What rating is a current model Clio then?!


Just that this Cup has stood up pretty well for a 50mph impact!

 

[paul172cup]

Im fine. Got burn marks up my arms from the airbag and a bloody nose but other than that fine.

Car has stood up well to the accident really but it is going to be a write off.

 

[Charlie]

thats bad man...sorry to hear that. how long does it normally take for insurance companies to get you back on the road again? were all the mods insured?

 

[iPap]

Glad you are Ok!!! The car can be replaced! You cant!

Thats the latest model Clio they have tested.

Sorry to see your motor in such a state, but at least you are okay. Hope you get it sorted and all the insurance issues go through smoothly.

 

[Rich-D]

Just checked the NCAP ratings...


Current shape Clio (2000 Car) - 4 Stars
Older Shape Clio (1996 car) - 2 Stars

Thats bl00dy good for the current model then and it shows here!

 

[TimO172]

Hope you are ok, guess your air bags still work!!

 

[TimO172]

When I crashed my arms were burnt due to airbag

 

[philip]

Im glad youre ok Paul. The cars replaceable.

 

[Bubbles]

Wow, apart from the front, the car looks pretty much in tact, pedals dont look like they moved... I hope your ok, and are confident enough to be back on the road again soon.

 

[CB1A]

get a claim in matey - the comp will pay for a v6

 

[cat171]

oh my god !!

glad your ok though,

car looked bloody mint,

hope they pay for a new one, and the primera driver gets what is coming (their a silly pr*tt for not looking)

we can tell whos been watching top gear last night. Do you remember the bloke who took the impact at 30mph and how he was shaking? Imagine Paul at 50 mph ... Lucky to be in a state to take pics, and yes the car seems to have done remarkably well. weird how the airbox popped out with the shock...

 

[CUPPY]

paul sh*t mate looks bad at least you are ok mate!!!! wish i had those wheels now mate maybe things might have turned out differently if we had met on saturday!!!! sixth sense and sh*t!!!!!

 

[Jim172CUP]

glad youre ok mate.

Was that the Cup with 17 inch Turinis and the nice ICE in the boot etc?

Hope youre back on the road soon.

 

[geordiepaul]

Fook me!!! Sorry to hear that mate

At least your OK. Hope that driver responsible gets what he deserves!!

 

[KDF]

Sorry to hear about your accident.. looked like a really nice Cup too.

Can I just say though that accidents happen (yes I would be really pissed off too) but we all make mistakes and have lapses in concentration, so try not to be too hard on the other driver.

Just wanted to point that out, once again though I am sorry that your Cup is damaged, hope you get it repaired or get a new Cup (or even upgrade to a 172 )

 

[Simon172]

Oh holy sh!t, im so sorry dude. Feel gutted for you mate. At least you are intact and your alloys seem ok. Also you can retrieve those buckets and your sub and strut in the boot.

You should get a replacement. A new car.... so.... every cloud.....

 

[jon_r]

Best of luck mate with everything, would think your thanking the harnesses!

Amazing how the thing stood up to a 50mph crash.

Most importantly glad to hear your OK, dont worry itll get sorted.

 

[172gal]

As everyone has said, sorry to see those pics, looks awful, blessing that you came away without a scratch.

 

[White16valver]

Bit of T-cut, itll be fine.

 

[y0z2a]

sorry to hear about your bad luck.
