Worst Night Ever

[Team T-Sport 17]

I had the worst night of my life ever last night. I was taking my girlfriend home last night on the M8 when i was only doing about 70mph and we hit surface water or something and the car span straight into the central reservation then span out into the middle of the motorway. The whole front end of the car is wrecked and the left suspension strut is shafted. Dunno if it will be a right off but i hope not. ARGH!!!!!!!

[knightrider]

gutted mate evry seems 2 having problems at the mo, i sure all will work out an i hope u an ur gf are ok?

[Yarisboy]

ouch, sorry to hear that m8!

could have been worse - you're both still alive and not injured (i'm assuming!)... well maybe your pride has taken a bit of a bruising but don't worry too much

car's can be fixed/replaced - try and look on the bright side :)

[jaxx]

aww no not another!

sounds like youve done the same as me!

[T V O R]

No way! Hope you are OK, I assume it was due to aquaplaning, that can catch anyone out.

At least you walked away from a 70+ mph crash.

The car has done its job and saved your lives, metal can be replaced, you and your loved ones cannot.

Other cars would have folded in that same situation (trust me I know) so glad you walked away.

You live to drive another day

[jaxx]

oh yeah sorry for my ignorance!

glad to hear you and the lass are ok!

[Team T-Sport 17]

Yeah we are both fine. Just had the car a month and already i have shafted it. Jaxx was urs written of or not and how much did it cost to fix it?

[jaxx]

nope not written off and i fixed it all myself. costing me approx £1000 to get it fully sorted!

and by the way ppl! i drove it for the first time again last night!

[Team T-Sport 17]

Jaxx, what did u need to repair it though. I need a new bonnet, new front bumper, to big thick metal bars at the bottom (dunno what they are), new left suspension strut, two new front lights, and a new radiator. I think thats all but it aint been checked out yet. Get a quote later today.

[jaxx]

lower suspension arm, new wheel, new tyre, new headlamp, new driveshaft, new aircon rad, new wing and then a respray

alot of things ive used this as an opportunity to modify and improve, ie on the wheels and headlamps

[Moffmo]

Sorry to hear that mate! hoep you are ok tho...

Is this a curse OR is it a fault with tsports????? i think its tsports that are spinning out and crashing :!Removed!:

[cokg2]

sorry about the car mate, but hey, at least you walked away from it

chin up!

[Kenny]

not another one!! :o

sorry to hear about it mate, glad you're both ok

Kenny!

[Chuck04]

ooo no, thats terrible, least u and ur las r ok, hope it all gets fixed up ok man, keep smillin, could have been worse

[Demonic Angel]

Thats awful.... Glad to hear you are both ok though - T-V-O-R is right, metal can be replaced but you can't.

Its always a good sign when you can walk away.

All the best

Angel

i find cornering hard in my GS300.. especially when the door is open and someone is falling out.. or should i say being pushed out!

As for aquaplaning... get some good tyres that will slice through that water nicely!
