Now fixed and back on the road according to the police

Makes you think, doesnt it? Not all refurbed cars are going to be top-drawer quality and clearly some will be botched jobs.

I wonder how many weekend repaired cars are out there on the roads?

Sad to see a broom yellow GT in such a state....

My Old Cup, written off at 700 miles!!

No airbags deployed and the wheels are pointing straight even though the steering wheel is on full lock left

This one looks fixable. Im wondering why such a new car would have been written off. Are 172s particularly expensive to repair?

I have got more pics somewhere, But the offside is completely smasked in were I slide along a ditch, Roof is caved in as I went under a barbed wire fence, Both pillars are squashed, real mess - Will look for other pics later

OMG!! Hey Fred2001Dynamic how did he manage that???

 

[Fred@BTM]

about 110mph down an A road, lost control, hit the curb, flipped into air, hit tree (6ft up the trunk) whilst upside down, rolled about another 3-4 times and then landed on roof!!!

he broke both his wrists (pro photographer) and had a cut on his head

shame really, as that car had about £4K under the bonnet!!!

at least he lived. The clio can take some beatins but i think thats about as much as it can take before any death or serious injury occurs.

lucky bloke.

btw would a full roll cage have helped ??

 

[Fred@BTM]

cage wouldve helped majorly

he/we still say to this day the buckets and harnesses saved his life

 

[cat171]

i remember seeing the pics of roamers car at the time - still makes me cringe seeing them (a very lucky escape by the looks of it)

Paul172cup your cup was the nuts, i loved the mods you did to it, before it was mashed.
