Sorry to hear that Hope you're ok.

I think another UK300 was written off a while back.

Thumbs down

I drive past a large Auto Salvage auction place every day and they have huge carparks full of mashed cars. From the road I can see there is a UK300 with major front end damage. It's been there for about a month now.

Hi,
Yes it is definately a write off
as it has sustained major rear drivers
side damage and front drivers side
damage due to hitting the side
bars on a big roundabout, i did manage
to drive it home though, but after about 5
minutes it blew up.
must have either been a disrupted fuel line
or a dead short according to the fire brigade.
Air bags did not pop and i had no control when it
went in to a flat spin.
Thankfully i am fine and no one else was involved

BUDA, sorry to hear that. Glad you're alright - that's all that really matters. STI thru insurance?

So, is the UK300 now a UK297 then? Will Subaru re-issue new stickers?
(With apologies if this is in bad taste. You seem fairly sanguine about it)

Did it just start to flame? and you got out quick and up she went?

You are very lucky! A to be unhurt in the accident and B not to have gone up in it with it blew!
