RIP to my 339BHP Bugeye twinscroll WRX
Went to see my scooby on the weekend, took some photos in the cold light of day. So sad :-( Reckon i'm lucky to come out with just a scratch and a bit of whiplash!
Its a sad day, a tyre blew out while I was on the M1, hit the barrier on the hard shoulder then span out hit the barrier on fast lane.
Touch wood, i had no injuries apart from a small graze on my right arm, and no one was hurt, apart from my bug!
In memory of my dearly beloved... RIP

When I got out the car, all suspension struts were out of place, with the front 2 wheels horizontal. The car was out of shape, and it will be a write off, there's no way she can be fixed.

Really sorry to here about that mate, the main thing is that nobody was hurt. You can always start a new project. Still heart breaking though. Good luck for any future project
I hope the insurance gets sorted out quickly and you can find another.

'kin hell mate, gutted for you - but on the plus side I can switch the CCTV off that was monitoring my rear brakes and spoiler
At least no-one was hurt and metal is metal - it can be replaced
