I've had a bit of a crunch !!!
You know what it's like.
You're heading along your favourite piece of road.
You reach that combination of bends that just begs to be taken flat out with your tail on fire.
Then just at that point of no return.
You feel the back end step out.
With lightning reflexes you try to catch it.
Too late.
You're heading for the trees.
Backwards.
The wildlife runs for cover.
A wayward squirrel is caught between a mighty oak & your shiny paintwork.
A splash of red on gloss black.
Not a pretty sight.

Well that's how I would have prefered it to have happened.
Apart from the wayward squirrel bit of course.
However it was just me reversing into a low barrier at PC World. Doh.
Still not to worry.
My No Claims Bonus is safe.
A bit of First Aid & job's a good un.
What makes it worse,if that's possible,is I had only just had the rear re-sprayed for JAE.
Now where can I get a quote from next week?

Cheers for all the commiserations guys. 
The Stealth Wagon goes in for surgery on Friday.
I will be paceing up & down the corridor like an expectant father.

Hope it all got sorted today. I'm sure the SW will be back to it's former immaculate glory in no time.

Hi Flat Eric 
(& Little Eric)
This must be catching... we reversed the wagon into an offending inamimate object too
.
And we just had the rear waist spolier fitted, now pu a nice crease in bumper and need a repaint of tailgate
Don't know about 'pimp your ride' this thread reads more like 'Bump your Ride'
