...the wet weather claims another zed

 

PICS here http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=798010#post798010

 

 

mine!.....stuffed it through a hedge today...lost the back end on a straight road @ 40-50 mph went on to wet grass and couldnt stop...d'oh

 

looks like a total write-off every panel has some kind of damage...still no-one hurt no-one else involved

ouch.... :cry:

ouch.... :cry:

 

that looks nowhere near as a bad as i thought bud,surely not a hard repair?

 

Paul.

I'd get that repaired. It's not had a hard it. Just cosmetic stuff really. What's the other side like? How badly damaged are the wheels?

I have a sick feeling in the bottom of my stomach.... so much more than when I sold it.

 

But as we've said before, main thing is you are ok. There may be a bright side if you buy it back at a good price and maybe personalise a bit to your own exact taste...although it was perfect! LOL.

 

Haven't been about much lately - has someone else had a knock in their Z???

 

cheers James i'm ok..........its was perfect no mistake

Not quite as it was an auto. ;)

 

Dude, repair it please to exactly how it was! Can't waste such a nice car. I'd go so far as to say that's probably my favourite on the forum.

gutted for you, that is a zed to be admired,

 

shouldn't be too much to get that one repaired, a looks a lot better than I imagined it to be. mostly cosmetic from those pics.

mine looked much worse than that when i crunched it LOL! am sure insurance would pay out to repair that!

Glad you are ok mate!

 

The car doesn't look too bad really. Should be fixable.

I think the bush took the worst of it.

 

Bloody shame though.

been with the recovery guys....both front wheels have been smashed back and one of rears...lots of underside damage...bent and twisted most of the stuff under the nose/front....all panels offside are u/s...total loss i'm afraid

I'm truely gutted for you...and for me....the loss of another stunning example of a tastefully modified Z. :(

Can't believe this Z has been lost. :( What a crying shame.

:shock: :shock: :shock:

:cry: It only looks like a bit of light cosmetic in the pics. Gutted for you.

 

Depending on what the insurance company offer you, you may find it more worthwhile to break and sell the parts your self.

I have seen this car in the flesh and it was a great example. Glad you are ok.

Oh shiiiiit! :( :( :(

One of the nicest Z's around and it's silver too - well partly!

Looks easily repairable but depends on that damage underneath.

 

Another one bites the dust.

TAKE IT EASY GUYS!

Not as bad as I imagined but hard to tell from the pics........ you never know!!

 

Let me know Chris how you get on.... :cry: :wack: :cry:

Can't believe this Z has been lost. :( What a crying shame.

 

Absolutely gutted ..

 

One of my favs as well.

 

Glad no-one was hurt.

True. Auto-box, wet/icy roads, big powerful car... not really a great combination. As I said before, very sorry to hear this as it was a truly lovely car.

Chin up m8, at least you walked away, total shame on the car you gotta get it repaired though.

What a sad few days it's been on here. No one has been hurt so thats obviously a great thing but that was a seriously gorgeous motor as was Dipones.:(

 

So sorry to hear about this but I hope all those involved in accidents recently keep the faith and get back in a Zed soon.

 

Please be careful everyone!

Spend a few quid on Racelogic Traction Control, it really does stop this kind of thing happening and is great for improving your power slides in the summer ;)

ffs not another!! really gutted for you mate.
