Default Gutted, think my mate wrote his scooby off!

I know this is NSR, but I am really gutted for them.

After I had the scoob my mate got the itch back and decided to buy another, anyway, they have had it about 5 months.

They went for a drive out today as the snow has all gone, and got caught on a slippery patch of road. Luckily my mates and ther little boy are all fine, but looks like the car is a right off!

The bumper, grill, head light, near side wing, two doors 3 wheels, bonnet, fuel lines!! He is very pissed off.

Sorry to hear they were in a wreak, main thing is they are ok. Car is just a bit of metal, insurance will take care of it.

Glad they are OK

Likely if three wheels are bent that the suspension/chassis is bent as well. How old is the car, what model and did the airbags deploy?

Bugger, my mate wrote his PPP Wagon off a few weeks ago, he sent me a camera phone pic with just the word oops as the title, the real tragedy is he now has a Vecrtra diesel.

He may even be lurking on here as we speak, I was going to0 buy it off him when he wanted a change as well !

It's a black 03 blob. They had an automatic wagon about 4 years ago after a streak of Novas! lol.

Looking at the pic, i'd say the air bags didn't go off.

Like you all said though, they all walked away, and the insurance will cover it. But I don't think they will be able to get another one now. Like myself, my mate is a young female driver, and even though they have both had a few fast cars, I think the insurance is going to be a bigger issue now than it was.
