have not cleaned car for 2 weeks so pretty dirty etc lights all clogged up. Driving home last night couldnt see very well and hit a high kerb at about 45mph. Ahhhh!!

How strong is the alloy suspension on a STi5. Really hard hit but there doesnt appear to be any damage???

Have a good one

Oof! Nasty one mate - done something similar in a previous car. Was lucky with that one too.

The weather and condition of the roads is pretty dire right now - need more rain to clean my car. Wash it and 1 mile later its as if you never bothered.

Did you ever sell the Cibies?

Shouldn't your newyears resolution be to learn how to remove and replace wheel nuts ?

Two weeks since you've washed your car - that's disgusting!

My car has only been jetwashed once since the Isle of Man trip, and that was in September. It doesn't look too bad when it's raining

I can't remember what gold wheels look like!
