Kelly is stoked that Sarah is on the same wavelength.

Compromise with silver I'm told.
It will go with the Black hatch and the Red dresses!
Hemi silver is apparently the colour you require :D

And Kelly says when she has my car painted, we'll match!! :P

Grant..

Mate that's an absolute tragedy :cry:
Hope it is repairable, feel for you.
My greatest fear with one of these cars is exactly what has happened to you.
I'm sure some have seen the high level brake light in my Hatch and said it was daggy.
But if it help's save the car from that sort of treatment I�m willing to live with it.

Well, spoke too soon, the missus got hit in the rear today, i shit!

Ran home to check it out, nothing? seems the newer model car hit the upturned tow bar square on, and plastic doesn't bend steel so easy.

She was at a roundabout, moved forward a little and stopped, seems the guy behind, saw her move and didnt pay attn to the fact she hadn't gone anywhere.

She also had removed her foot off the brake pedal at that exact time, so it just bounced her forward, lucky days, no one was in front of her neither.

It shows even a bigarse high taillight will not stop them coming at you.

I've done it to.

See the car in front move, look into the roundabout for a gap, bang, they hadn't gone anywhere.

That was in a company Ford, knocked the plastic bumper clean off it and not a scratch on the other car.

I did a similar thing. I parked the torana just behind an old escort, handbrake on in neutral (disc brake rear end). The car gently rolled forward with me not noticing as I was doing some thing..then bang. I bumped into a parked car.

I started the car, reversed back and you should of seen the damage to this car..

Next thing this guy comes out screaming waving his arms that I wreck his car and I have to pay. I was shocked as it was only a tap.

Upon closer inspection I could see rust on the damage that i apparently cause. It seems it was damaged prior to me and he wanted easy money.

I pointed this out to him and told he that he wouldn't get a cent as he was trying to rip me off.

He said okay and walked away. I sat there for a few good minutes in shock trying to process what just happened..
