GTI

Had the day off today so went on a bit of a drive. Found myself on a new road so stuck below limit as it was tight country road. When some **** whit came flying round the corner in range rover smashed my front end in and flew into the wall behind.
I'm ok just bit of a sore back but my S3 looks like a write off! ;(

Very sorry to know that.U never know when your car can be smashed by some stupid driver even when it's not your fault! Got something else to drive around your will it make you carless for a few days?Is the other driver ok?

GTI

Thanks mate, but only 14,000 miles on the clock it was just run in!

Ah well I guess I should buy an STI8 PPP to get me over this idea I must own a scooby atleast once in my life out of my head. Just till the 3.2A3 comes out!

GTI

Yeah he's okay bad back and few stictches and a wrecked car.
I've borrowed a Golf GTI 2.0 litre Am picking it up tomorrow morning. Then the insurance company will sort something out.

I`d be after a Golf R32 mate!

GTI

Thought of the Golf too, I keep thinking I don't think I'll get and STI8 afterall. Don't know why don't think clients will like the image.
Why not the new 3.2 A3 never had a go in the R32 anygood loved it when I sat in it!

Simon S3

If I could afford it (I`m about to go diesel so the Golf`s out) I`d get an R32. It`s awesome, fantastic exhaust note, good pace and the usual solid feel of VAG cars. The only thing against the R32 is the fact that the Mk5 Golf will be out soon.

I agree, an STI8 is excellent but a bit too "in your face" for business use.

GTI

Thats why I haven't got one before but I just had a brain wave.... how much is the new S4?

Simon S3

New S4 is around 40,000!

Gren

Yep, around £35-36k before toys. Nice V8 though.

ADL-ATR

Make sure that whiplash of yours gets the rigth compensation!

mkyboy

Glad your OK!

Gutted for you about your S3, there great cars!

Same thing happened to me in feb with my Scooby, i still miss it!!!!

Veracocha

Bad news GTI - I would be upset if my S3 was written off. Especially if only had 14,000 miles on it.

At least you are fine.

GTI

Yeah my backs ok, had it check by a doctor and contacted a solictor.
I think I may have to go and have a look at an S4, didn't realise I could afford one. (Y)
May just get an R32 though as its alot money at the moment with then new house.

I was absoulutley gutted just seeing it so fcuked after all the cleaning and polishing!

Thanks Guys

GTI

Just make sure you're more careful in your new motor

Mog

GTI

It wasn't me! None of my mates believe me (have a reputation for a heavy right foot ) Will be careful tho!


I'm in love the kick the umpth the mmmm but lets hope the scum bags keep their hands off, when I park it in the luvley area my work demands!

moses

P1Fanatic

You could have had my X reg DBM for £11.5k with 18K on the clock!

Simon.

GTI

You tell me that now! lol
Ah well only for a few weeks till the insurance money comes through for the S3 and I can locate a S4!

Someone will have a very nice car though, I love this and its only standard!

Phil M

Thats very unlucky mate, sounds quite serious actually.

With the money you get for having that whiplash and bad back you'll be able to afford a proper car, M3!

<flame suit on>

P1Fanatic

Its been on FOR SALE for the last month lol

Simon.

catalunya199

GTI
