well it finaly happend! I had a major crash and the 300 is no more. or at least I think it is! Just waiting the ins company to pick it up now should be here in the next 30 mins and only had the crash last night :o impressed with the service so far thought they would fart about getting an assessor to look at it.

 

Whats the going rate for a 92 TT at the mo? want to make sure they dont try and rip me off!

 

As for pics, see below! and as for what happend, well the back end broke away and i applied opisit lock, and cought it, then she whiped the other way, cought that and over cooked it and spun her 180 in the middle of the M25 in rushhour into a artic in lane 1 with the second axel of the artic driving over the front and then the back of the zed slaming into the same wheel on the artic

Jesus my friend, looks nasty are you okay? Going rate isnt good i dont think, but main thing is you seem to have you health and high spirits!

 

Will you be getting another?

Nooooooooo, gutted for you fella! :cry:

Glad you're OK - could have been a lot worse. How the hell did you lose the back end on a motorway in rush hour though?

i suspect a boot full to get out into a different lane, is it an auto?? If so thats the first kick down casualty of the year!

came up behind the artic doing 30 up the hill, pulled out to pass, got level with him and the backend just sliped out sideways. guess it was wet oily road, and 300bhp = bang!

Yep shes an auto! but she didnt kick down. was in the same gear all the way till the bang and hitting the second axle of the tractor unit. the bloke said i was bloody lucky as he had only just lowered it minutes before as he had a heavy load. said if it had been up she would have got hooked up and pulled under.

Christ - very nasty mate. Glad you came out of it in one piece. Wet oily road and 300bhp usually means considerably bigger bang!

very sorry to hear this - glad your ok. Could have ended up much worse considering you were overtaking a lorry on a motorway.

 

It's just a car - you can always get another..

On having another look at your pic's mate, that might actually buff out. :slap:

Glad you are ok , well if the Z has had it, at least it went out in style and not by some bloody idiot pulling out and hitting it. Shame but your health is the most important thing.

LOL funny enough i was just in the shed looking for the T-Cut ;)

 

Was lucky though as there was another car in the lane next to me i missed by mm and another artic that missed me that was in the same lane as me behind me. if he had hit me it would have been over.

 

Oh well, insurance fun now! pissed off though as just filled the fooker up!

Joking aside mate, I'm just glad you got out un injured, could have been allot worse.

Oh and a side note! if i delayed anyone by closing all 4 lanes while it was cleared up, I aplogise lol, as for the traffic cop on the bridge ahead, thanks for not even calling for help! lol ended up having to call help ourselves, still the trucker was as good as gold :) we sat chatting in his cab till help came :)

Yeah I know, old man used to do recoverys etc and i have seen some wrecks and its not nice, and not all are as lucky as me! still i can replace a car, cant replace me! dont think the wife was to happy though lol only got married on 30th lol

Ugh, that's not pretty. For some reason T thought you had a black Z - did you change it ?

I think your onto something there kim, youve got a front o/s wing, bonnet bumper,rear o/s quater rear bumper and boot lid.

 

If you can get second hand panels and get it sprayed it shouldnt be too expensive. If they try and write it off, try for a cash in lieu.

will it t cut out? sorry mate very serious crash your not hurt thats the main thing oily roads when wet is like hitting black ice spun a 2.8i capri years ago on wet oily roads very scarey hope your back in a zed soon.

Funny enough the bootlid is fine :) even like lights on the back are :) just the panels that are bent, have another bumper in the shed. inside wing looks ok, intercooler is ok, slam panel is a little bent but thats it. the boot floor in that side though is a little bent lol

well if you want any help stripping bits off it mate, ill come down and give you a hand if you want.

 

glad your ok by the way :D

Jesus matt, thank fook your okay, could have been a whole different matter.

If you need any stuff to keep the zed on the road or need a hand, give me a bell.
