Someone Hit it - think its a write off :(
I think its pretty much safe to say - that we shall soon be scoobless 
Going over the roundabout by KFC earlier this afternoon - both myself and a Renault (who was turning right) entered onto the roundabout at the same time - We stopped, but the other car seemed to accelerate into the side of us. Hit the pillar, smashed out the window of the drivers side, the roof looks a tad creased too and the back door doesn't shut anymore
Nobody injured - although the impact was on jessica's side - so the two girls were pretty hysterical - glass bloody everywhere!!!!

Milz - yes - only just got it back on the road with a new gearbox & clutch etc - Kids don't wanna get back in it now - so regardless its gotta go - could well be breaking it in the near future!! 
Dazza, indeed, no-one hurt - kids being the main thing all OK - I can replace a car - but the children are quite irreplaceable

Sorry to hear this. You aren't having much luck with mechanical stuff lately. 
Keep this up & you will be needing a Mr.Bump like mine.

OH no, what a mess.......................
Thank god everyone is okay - especially the children - as you say, cars can be fixed.
We were only saying how sweet it sounded at the posers on Saturday & how nice it looked too.
I must say we were watching it on Ebay, as I know Arkwright is hankering after another one (as well as mine!!)
Lets hope this is the end of it all, and that from here on in your year can only get better!

Yes - shall remove that today I think.
As for her being fixed - regardless she'll go, Daren wont keep her now, and as i mentioned my eldeset i don't think will get in either! A friend of ours drove down to us at the scene in his BM. I put my kids seats in there and he let me drive that home - Lilly was in the front and looked petrified - every car that came close, she flinched and going round a roundabout was a nightmare - i'm sure she had white knuckles by the time we got home
I'll be using the evo for a while now - bloody annoyed though cause we'd just been to TESCO and put Ł40 juice in
Typical!I'll have to see what the insurance company say today - May well break her - or have her fixed and sell her.
Daren's quite keen on a new one

glad you are all ok. similar thing happened to my sister, and her kids. The kids will get over it, just takes a bit of time.
Sad to see a nice looking scoob go that way, but at least you are all in 1 piece.

forgot to say, my classic was damaged a lot more than yours and was repairable.
so hopefully you will be able to get it back looking good again, even if just to sell it on.

Funnily enough - as we were hit on the roundabout - there was a blue scoob (newish) coming from the same direction as the Renault that hit us (from Christopher Martin Road) - I did hope it'd be one of this lot - but she didn't stop - or even acknowledge us 
- shame as I could do with a witness!
