If I fell in a bucket of tit's I would surface sucking my thumb!!!

Went to fill her up today at Western Avenue Tesco's with some 99. Pulled up and the "Pay and Go" pump is Out of Order, so I swing it back around and pull up to Pump 3. Bugger this one is off too!

So, I pulled off and forget that I have steered into the bay.

BANG!!!:mad:

Mount the curb with my newly aligned and shiney white wheels:cry: :o
Twat the alloy and dent the metal curb edge.

oh contre! - I was minding my own business along side roath park lake doing about 20mph. As i was on top of one of those little island thingys 3 ducks just ran out - i didn't even have time to hit the brakes.

Made one hell of a noise so pulled over as soon as i could. Bad news is 1 died the other 2 were fine! Good news is there is no damage to the car. After hearing the sound i was expecting some.

On bit of a serious note i did think when i got home about how easy it is for kids/people to run out and get hurt even when your not speeding...i'm sure there is a lesson in there somewhere:)

Did you take the Duck home ? only my mate in work would probably eat that :eek:

O bollo Ian,:mad:

Do you need to borrow the 17" again...?

OOOOOOHHH Ian:cry:

Did you take the Duck home ? only my mate in work would probably eat that :eek:

no - but i think the in law might have been going for it on his way home!

Sorry to see that mate! I have a number to a good company who can probably sort it for you if you need it since i did the same to mine a week after picking it up. Booked the repair and did the same to the other side the day after, i felt a right twat!:cuckoo:

:eek:

:cry:

Off to Renowheel on Monday. I can use the company Passat for a few days. Probably about £60 for the damage, repair and colour coding!!!

They are a top bunch so report will follow soon.
Don't for get to check out Pump 3's curb at Tesco Western Avenue, the bit that points at the shop:mad: :o Tahnkfully there was some give in the aluminium edge, concrete may have caused more damage.

Gutted for you mate, I know how this feels all too much, Your pissed off with yourself for days!!

I know a cracking recipe for duck:lol1:

sorry to here this ian the sound is horible you just want to close your eyes and think your somewhere else.let me know how you get on with renowheel ive sent them an email but had nothing back,my wheels are off the car waiting to be refurbed so if there good ill just go there.

rob i used to be a chef, that duck would have gone down lovely in my house i love duck and mushrooms.

:eek: Crikey I'm feeling your pain. I hope they do a good job fixing them up.:thumb:

O bollo Ian,:mad:

Thanks M8 but not yet! I'll keep the Scoob off the road for a few days. I'll hide it in work with the stupid mini spare on:o

That's a nasty chunk out of the alloy. Cant you file it down, mask it off and respray the area concerned.

Big Daz, Renowheel having website probs. Give em a ring.

Pain to follow soon, but the nice man is fixing it again.:luvlove:

You and bumping wheels:wonder: Mind be a good reason to give the others a good clean:)

Next Monday:cry: before I get my wheel back. The Scoob is hiding in a corner with a funny little yellow wheel on the front. Looks fecking pooh.

I like Mondays now:thumb:

Cheers Steve and Gary @ Renowheel.

Wheels back and FMOB's I can't tell where the ding was :notworthy !!!!!
By the way it was Pump 2 not 3.

sorted - all you need to do know is learn how to drive;):D:D:D

Cool, Just out of interest, how much do they charge? I've a few little ones on one wheel that needs attention
