So bit of wet weather and driver error caused this was aproaching traffic at a roundabout plenty of surface water left braking a bit late taped the breaks and that was it gone lost all grip and slid into the back of another car so annoyed as I know I could have stopped it from happening but it's all hindsight
Awaits driving like a dick comments but we live and Learn

Shame about that, car looked like it was coming along nicely.
Crashing is easily done, I done similar just down to lack of concentration, you repairing it?

im not sure yet mate lost the love with it tbh after spending almost 500 in august for MOT i just dont know if i can will myself to put more money into it and just felt so uncomfortable driving it home after the accident (was only a mile away) just didnt feel right luckilly i work at a crash repair center we have had it on the ramp and the only damage we can see apart from body work is the slam panel has gone back but half an hour with a slide hammer could sort that but then the parts list is quite long to make it mint again

Goldie dead roll out the Posi VTR
so i picked this up for £320 without tax or mot at a local auction gave it a good look over seemed solid no rust anywhere and a strong rear beam
could see the potential with just a few touches it would be the perfect replacement
bad points where:
all tyres ruined
needed a good wash
but the bonus was there was a spare set of alloys included with the sale
so i got the car home swapped the wheels over from goldie drove it to the test center half hour later got the call it had passed result
so the plans are:
wheel refurb
4-2-1 mani
spax lowering kit
put straight thru center pipe on (DONE)
and finally enjoy
C&C Welcome
