yes, she decided to have a fight with a metal post in the subaru the other day... the post as bolted to the ground, she sheared the bolts and ripped the post out... does that mean she won the fight as it kinda scarred the poobaru in the battle!!

 

 

she has now learnt that when turning a tight corner that its not necessarily a completed manouvre until the backend of the car has also passed to 'impact zone'... and that the backend is more likely to catch as it takes a tighter radius :p

 

we found out that the insurance had a crazy 600 quid excess and the damage repair was about 750 so we might aswell just do it privately! (the damage may look superficial but the rear section of the sill has been crushed so requires pulling out, the sideskirt is fooked, the rear door skin is streched too much to repair and itll need pretty much the whole offside of the car re-painting)

 

she was very distraught and upset when she did it so i didnt get mad... however... 750quid could have got me some nice goodies for the zed :headvswal and after all... it is a scooby :tongue:

Got a bottle of T-Cut if that'll help :x:

ouch :( marriage restrictions need to be brought in here as in the return of car keys and a dusting off of the push bike plus a hard spanking for 5 nights :D

oh my....

Ouch....I worry about similar incidents when the wife is driving, she doesn't get the concept of the rear wheels taking a tighter radius, she has just been lucky so far !

Gutted! :

leave the poopra as it is and spend the £750 on ya zed.

 

oh and the poopra is so common now i dont think anyone wood notice :tongue:

Last year when I had my Subaru Legacy some eastern european with not much English :dance: reversed into the rear door of my car. :headvswal

It was metallic silver and I knew whoever fixed it couldn't match the colour 100%.

So I phoned up a japanese car breakers( I've got there number somewhere) and asked if they had a rear door in silver for a legacy twin turbo............... They did.................. I received it 2 days later £45 inc delivery, bolted it on exactly the same silver ......Jobs a goodun (saved any colour matching) You might be able to do the same and just get the sill repaired???
