Wednesday afternoon was getting down the road minding my own business, looking pretty slick behind the wheel of the minge when out of nowhere some poxy whench fails to stop at traffic lights and smashed right into the side of me. The impact was enough to spin me but my superior driving skills enabled me to correct the spin and gain control again without mounting the median strip.

I came away unscathed as did the woman of the subaru liberty wagon that hit me but unfortunately the minge was mangled. The pics are just from a camera phone so not very good. Im hoping like hell it is just panel damage and easily fixed. Will keep you updated when I hear from the panel beaters.

So sorry to hear this jason..............those certainly arn't the kind of Minge pics I want to be looking at.

I hope it's all fixed soon.
Glad everyone was OK..............................cars will fix.

minigolf · Apr 8th, 2005, 09:01 AM

Bugger!

Glad all are okay and weren't hurt in the stack. Hopefully you'll be right in no time and the damage is just superficial.

Cheers Liam

FUNSIZE · Apr 8th, 2005, 09:23 AM

Oh Jason!

I'm happy yo hear your well

" solid excretory product evacuated from the bowels" for your poor Mini

Hope it's sorted soon...

arithel · Apr 8th, 2005, 10:11 AM

Very bad Jason, altho it could have been a lot worse for you and the Minge...a second sooner and she'd have rammed you!

I got rammed by a stupid old man about a month after delivery, put me in a bad mood everytime I saw the damage....

Good luck with repairs, hope they are speedy!

enzothemaddog · Apr 8th, 2005, 10:20 AM

Ive been hit in exactly the same spot....Not a hard job, any reasonable beater can do it. Only thing to worry about is everything connected to that rear wheel. If it was hit hard enough, it could be....not so pretty.
Should take about a week to fix.

alexpalex · Apr 8th, 2005, 10:48 AM

And I bet those stripes aren't cheap to repair either...!!!!!!
