Stealthy clio is no more.. Head on crash :(

[rob_sri]

And here ends my progress thread..

So..Traffic officers were chasing an idiotdrugdealerscumbagwankpot in a stolen hire car wrong way down a dual carriage way early hours of this morning..

Meanwhile I was driving back from a night out with my girlfriend singing along to some really bad songs ..The Usual.. She was playing 'dj'.. All was well..

I saw blue lights flicking off the trees round the bend and covered the brakes..

"s**t..."

I saw 4 head lights baring down on us, I tried to swerve but it was a blind bend with very little room and we both had little time to move..

as I moved left he moved right and as i pulled left again at the last second we hit on the passenger side bonnet head on with a deafening bang

the car went spinning 180 degrees and came to rest against the curb..he went through a fence after spinning a complete 360..

knobend tried to bolt and promptly got flattened by two traffic officers..

We are just so so lucky to be Alive I was doing 40.. Twatface was doing about 70..

Both me and my girlfriend got away thanks to the mods.. Harnesses (mounted to the lower rear belt points by the way), bucket seats and cage etc

ambo fire crews and police reckon it saved our lives or at least from very serious injury..

I've got a broken collarbone and currently typing this from a hospital bed.. Can't sleep.. Playing it over and over in my mind so I thought I'd write about it.. It's actually helped a lot..

My girlfriend has some nasty bruising, concussion from the airbag and a sprained ankle but she is relatively okay thank god after spending god knows how long on a spinal board in the resus area I don't think I've ever been so scared..

Heartlands hospital in Birmingham have been amazing some of the most kind and caring people I've ever met.. They've allowed us to sleep in the same ward together and push the beds together so we weren't apart..

I am going to see the car tomorrow I hope and wave goodbye so I will take pictures and upload them as soon as I can

Il update soon..

 

[rob_sri]

ouch

 

[Clart]

jesus that sounds like like a nightmare. Glad you are both ok. Where abouts did it happen?

 

[LiamR172]

Holy s**t.. loved your car too.

Was everything insured?

Get well soon!

 

[Lal B3N]

Jesus! At least you and your girlfriend are both ok.

As nice as your car might of been, it is just a car.

Could of been far worse.

Hope you both make a quick recovery.

 

[josh11490]

Gutted for you, never commented on your thread or anything but I read all of it a couple of times.

Atleast you and the girlfriend aren't seriously hurt! Get well soon! You can replace a car!

 

[George182]

Truly gutted for you mate, your car was stunning.

But frankly right now what's really important is that you and your girlfriend have come out the other side ok!

I wish you both a speedy recovery.

 

[chris-182]

Glad you and your gf are okay mate!

 

[Scrooge]

Ouch! Sorry to hear that scumbags!

 

[mjf93]

Sorry to hear about this mate! So frustrating that its completely not your fault and that some tw*t can take everything away from you in just a second. Hope you make a speedy recovery and get another clio ASAP

 

[Martin.]

Jeeesus. Thank f*ck you are both ok!! That's the most important thing. This sort of thing always shakes me up properly, I don't think I could live with myself if a passenger in my car was seriously injured.

Stupid w4nkers. I hope they get what they deserve and rot in prison!

As said a car is just a bit of metal. You're both on the road to recovery which is all that matters.

Hopefully you'll get a nice compensation deal for your injuries and losses which might ease the frustration.

 

[MartinR]

Bloody hell Rob atleast you are both ok... Shame about the car but its only metal

 

[B00mer]

Glad your both ok, pretty shocking stuff.

 

[martynzs]

Jesus. Glad youre both ok - as has been said, you haven't lost anything that cant be replaced

 

[Michael Woodford MST]

Fair play on the harness's/ bucket combo! It defiantly helped to reduce all your injuries.

Get well soon! Lets hope the UTTER SCUM BAG gets the book thrown at him.

 

[Scotty-boi]

God. There are some flipping idiots around!
Wish you both a speedy recovery pal!

 

[JaredHasNoBrain]

omg your so lucky!! glad you recover asap!
And the prick who crashed into you will hopefully get some long time in the cells the f**king t**t!!

 

[mi16chris]

Holy smokes mate thank god ur both alive that's crazy really sorry to hear about this , hope u bother make a speedy recovery mate X-ray don't looks the best man

 

[peanuthead]

F**king scumbag. Glad the injuries weren't too bad hope you get better soon

 

[Kyle 86]

Hope your both ok pal

 

[MarkCup]

F*** about! Glad you're OK, could have been so so much worse.

 

[Aydon182]

Glad you're ok. I had pretty much the same accident as this back in February 11 in my blue 182, some kid hammering round a blind corner in the middle of the road doing about 70, I had no buckets harnesses nothing but manage to get out with just a bit of whiplash. I think it's luck more than anything.

Anyway hope everything is smooth, make sure you claim your injuries. Seen as it was a crime scene you'll have no trouble, the t**t who hit me tried blaming me , it took 13 months before it came to justice.

 

[Pulsator]

Best of luck in a speedy recovery pal, hope the "idiotdrugdealerscumbagw**kpot" gets whats coming to him !!

 

[Reko]

FFS!! I really loved your car! Such a shame! :dapprove:

Just glad you and your gf are ok.

 

[Chris205]

Good to hear you're ok mate, liked your car when I was chatting to you at Fred's place.

Hope you both make a good recovery, I've got a mint black shell here if you need to reshell the car.

 

[Uncle_Gravy]

Jesus, makes you think are we truely safe on the road, Hope for a speedy recovery for the both of you, Get well.

 

[Rob]

F**king hell, glad you're both OK. Shame as your car was mint.

 

[TurboTaylor]

Get better soon mate hope you and your missus are ok

 

[Dan_j1]

Good to hear both of you are ok,

I'd love to put this story infront of some suited t**t in an insurance company and ask again why buckets and harnesses with a roll cage increase insurance quotes.

 

[Gladdish]

Glad your both okay!

Just shows what a difference buckets/harnesses/cages make!

 

[DanEdser]

Glad your getting better and not seriously injured!

Thank f*ck for the buckets, harnesses & cage! coulda been much worse without them :/

 

[Westyfield2]

Blimey, glad you're OK! Hopefully insurance will be OK with it all.
I know I've felt safer before when out in the racecar than in my 182 on the public roads... might be tempted to do some safety mods to it now!

 

[Riad]

Bad times glad your both ok.

Cars can be replaced mate

 

[George@RTR_Parts]

Bloody hell mate, not what you expect to see when driving home!

Glad you're both ok and wish you a speedy recovery

 

[Kruxxie]

Jesus, glad you are both ok. Squeeky bum time by the sounds of it.

Get well soon.

 

[dmallett]

f**k the car aslong as your ok mate! Hopefully you make a decent and quick recovery!

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Glad your both ok. That x-ray looks painful. Don't worry about the car.

 

[Darren S]

Awful to read. Something so wrong and random just being dropped on you like that.

Probably the best news aside from yourself and your girlfriend coming through relatively unscathed - is the fact that the Police were directly involved. They will probably have video/radio evidence which should all help to nail that prick of the other driver.

Fingers crossed pal - I wish the two of you the best to ocme through this....

D.

 

[Russler]

sounds nasty! get well soon both of you

 

[davo172]

f**king Gutted for you Rob Glad your both ok thats the main thing pricks like him usually end up killing someone and getting off free of injury themselves !!
Speedy recovery mate .
