New door working its away onto my Type S next week too...
Coming back from work late on the other week with a bit of snow blowing about the place. Came off the main road to cut through over the "tops", where the temperature had plummeted to -3 & obviously the roads hadn't been cleared. Cuatiously worked my way along there at approx 20mph behind some 15 year old shed of a Pug 106 & my Civic then decided not to follow the Pug anymore & instead nestle its way into the steepest ditch it could find...
Came to a halt against a grass banking near enough on its side (cue Dukes of Hazzard exit out the passenger window!) with the highest point of the car below road level. Recovery fella came & towed it out, checked it over, couldn't see any problem & that was that. I then trundled home deciding I was the luckiest guy in the world...
... until the morning after when I spotted that the entire drivers side door has been pushed in & there's minor creases all the way down it. It's now booked into the body shop for next Monday for the tidy sum of 850 notes. Can't go through insurance as I'll get crippled for it so it's having to go on the credit card. (At this point I should add this is the same body shop that resprayed my entire drivers side last November after some little scally ran a key all the way down it).
He now loves this car as it's single-handedly funding his family. I've decided that I don't love it anymore & now want something else!
Hope that makes you feel better Woette!
