This happened last week to my sisters boss. A forum member on here? Looks like a pretty neat hatch, but did a number on her house, check out where the frieplace ended up!

Hadn't seen that roll sequence before. NASTY stuff..... ouch!

I like the comment about the cheesy grin. I agree. lol.

This is my effort in 1991. I was 17 and on my P's :D

The other side is the same. I should scan that one too.

I found some bits off this car recently, including the ignition key! I had the badges for ages too. Can't find them now..... which really annoys me!! :furious:

Mine? Nah....

I had recently dropped a mild 253 into it, and was our cruising one night. It had BLACK tinted windows.... like Limo black. Bad move.... as at night it was hard to see.

Anyway, I was out cruising and didn't see a STOP sign. I got hit hard in the RH rear quarter. This sent me into a spin. The LH side wiped out 2 box trailers that were parked on the side of the road, then flattened a brick retainer wall, and came to rest on a tree. That's why there are different looking indentations in the side. They are from all the different things.

The transmission tunnel was squashed together, and both front seats were touching eachother. I came out of it with a bruised hip, and empty wallet.

Anything is repairable given time and lots of money.

Unfortunately that is not the case for this one. What the photos above dont show is that every single panel on the car apart from the bonet is bent smashed or creased so that makes it not worth it.
Had it not been for the CRS chassis kit in the car I'm certin Myself and Green Machine and his mate would have been killed or serriously injured or maymed.
The Chasis is still straight from what we can see, it's just every thing 1 foot up from the bottom sill panels is stuffed. There are no cracks in the trans and the engine position hadn't moved so I'm confident the running gear is still A1.

Pushing a bit too hard in average road conditions and ran out of road.
