OOOOOOOOps.
So there i was on the way to work approaching a T-junction down a steep hill, 1st gear, aprox 10mph.
Halfway down the hill the car steps sideways and im rapidy trying all sorts to avoid the glass fronted news agents slap bang at the bottom of the hill. I go straight accross the junction (thankfully nothing coming in either direction) and pummel into the brick upright between the 2 huge pains of glass. Thought for a minute i was gonna turn the newsagents into a drive-thru!

Yeah, bless it. Funny thing is i got to work, earned about £40 and now have got a bill for about 5 times that to fix the car!...Mind you it could have been worse, 3ft to the right and id have a bill for the shop front! lol

[Shaun_23286]

Think i would rather have a bill for the shop though than have been hit at the bottom from both sides.

As you may no my 2nd hobbie is banger racing, and mondeo's are THE car to have now for racing, if you want i can ask around for a bumper and other bits if you want as all extirior trim has to be removed and you might be able to get it alot cheaper than froma garage/dealers?

Sorry to hear that mate. Mind you your car will now look like every other Mondeo that shape on the road.

Mondeo = Duct tape

I did that last year, £100 damage to mine, wrote off a laguna

Careful though, apparently you can get whiplash from a 3mph impact!

Second hobby? Thought thrashing round Wimbo was your first hobby lol.

Agreed on the Mondingo statement though - I'm surprised the brick post didn't come off worse. Obviously wasn't a "built" motor lol
