Why, Why, Why ??? (Do't look if U R sensitive)

Bravo · 16th September 2007, 02:26

This is the result of some ****** pulling out right in front of me, while I was doing +-60km/h.

The only reason my car isn't a write off is because of the Type R's superior brakes. I've only had it for only 2 months, and now I can't sleep knowing my car isn't in my garage.

Please feel free to leave your condolences...

Looks fixable though.

Pottsy · 16th September 2007, 08:18

That is so frustrating. With luck it will be just cosmetic - fingers crossed.

Was he insured? Is the ambulance behind there for him?

Wasser098 · 16th September 2007, 08:19

So sorry mate...hope it can be fixed.

thespacecowboy · 16th September 2007, 09:03

We all feel for you

TTDegs · 16th September 2007, 09:45

Ouch!

fingers crossed

czechplastik · 16th September 2007, 10:09

I feel your pain,

Hope you get sorted.

fennj · 16th September 2007, 11:25

That'll fix up like new. Were you injured ?

Korkut Varol · 16th September 2007, 12:00

Surely it is irritating, but thanks God you are still alive. There do occur some cases that no matter how low the speed in a crash is, people can get injured or even killed in the accident...
The only problem will be that you will be away from your spaceship for some days.. But you can make up for the non-driven times, eh?

czechplastik · 16th September 2007, 15:59

It doesn't look too bad, should be fairly easy to fix.

Bravo · 16th September 2007, 16:59

Hi All,

Thanks a ton for the sympathy, it somehow makes me feel better.

Potsy: Was he insured? Is the ambulance behind there for him?

Yeah, luckily he was insured and thankfully the ambulance was just there to create awareness to other motorists. The Ambulance actually witnessed the whole accident from behind me. Totally the other blokes fault.

You just made my day. I love it when other peoples optimism rubs off on me. I normally just stress when I think about it.

Nope, no injuries. I must say that I am extremely impressed at how well the FN2 absorbed the impact. The airbags didn't even need to be deployed. Apparently the impact was not severe enought to warrant a bloody nose.
Again, thanks for the optimism.

Harps · 16th September 2007, 19:23

Hello Mate!

I really feel for you, first the damaged tyre and now this! I agree it looks like cosmetic damage should be ok,

All the best mate hope its repaired quickly and your driving about soon...

Bravo · 17th September 2007, 00:10

Thanks, I'm still waiting on a quote, hopefully it'll be no longer than a week or two, but that might be unrealistic and maybe a month or two is more accurate. Anyhow, I'll find out later today when I go there.

Kremmen · 17th September 2007, 07:03

Hope it gets sorted 100%

Interesting to note that the foglight didn't shatter, or did it and the photo doesn't show it clearly?

JoeyF · 17th September 2007, 07:14

Absolutely gutted for you! I'm sure it will look as good as new in no time.

l-noel · 17th September 2007, 07:35

I Feel sorry for you ! I hope you will get soon good news from the body shop !

Well noticed, it didn't, from what I've read you don't normally need an accident to break one of those.

Just found out today that the soonest I can expect it back is at the end of October!

l-noel and JoeyF: Thanks dudes.

Until I get my car back, at least I'll have this cool forum to keep me busy.
