Yes´i was twatting about in the snow, but after i got board of going round in circles i made my way of the ...erm.....private bit of land/large car park type of place
Anyway, whilst making my way out i kinda went a little side-e-ways into the kerb and klipped it at very slow almost stopping speed but was enough to take a chunk out of it. If that wasnt bad enough, just as i got myself out of that situation some guy in a 3 series bm came looning into the junction and slid so wide he went right round the near side of me and up onto the path. Only missed me because i drove forward to escape him sliding into me as he went round the wrong side

Ouch! hope you get one. People tend to charge silly money for these, even more so when buying singles.

That's nasty! I wasn't expecting to see the wheel that badly damaged Could have been worse though.

Yes, it could have been worse especialy if i had got out to inspect it just before the BM driver came round the corner

Amazingly, its still holding presure but i am not really using it much, not that it would take much to do whatever if you know what i mean

Just gotta hold on until i can get my mits on a replacement.

Funily enough there is a guy on ebay with singles with then advertized at £70 with "submit best offer" so i submitted £65 thinking that was good and the guy declined

Anyone know anyone with one
