for those of you who remember me ello

ive just gone back to vauxhall after some divy bitch did a u turn without looking and writing off my subabaru impreza wrx import

i decided to get another car smaller cheaper to run
after looking at a few saxo vts all of which were rotton and ran like a bag of sh*te i noticed a corsa sport 16v 1.6 just down the road from me
it had had one owner done 47000 miles X reg (i think the lad was on mig web forum) the car is from wrexham and had a lot spent on it looks well drive spot on
ill put the pics up of the scooby the damage is not to bad but due to it being an import the parts cost a fortune so the insurance wrote it of:cry:

ill pop some pics up of the corsa too when i take some

all the best lee

Howdoodily


ill put the pics up of the scooby the damage is not to bad but due to it being an import the parts cost a fortune so the insurance wrote it of:cry:
Dealers should be able to source all parts.. it being an import just sounds like an insurance excuse so they don't have to pay out...

epo
26-10-08, 07:46 PM
the corsa's had loads done to it
its lowered on 17's cat back system
induction kit drilled and grooved discs
few decent speakers in it my own head unit
volt gauge and a few other bits and bobs

was told by the insurance company to a standared impreza sport tuk spec its £1000 worth of damage
the bonnet on mine alone was suposed to be worth £600
they paid out £2250 i paid £2700 last spetember so £450 down

once my compo pays out will have a bit more coin too so i recon ill get a decent caravan to tow with the frontera then we'll look like reet pikeys turning up with a caravan and 4 lurchers lol

its ok what with tax insurnace it'll be cheap to run i know a fair bit about vaux so it seemed ok to go back too
ill wait for a nice chunk of compo to come back and will see what i get
but the corsa's ok
got a phone call from the old bill tellin me there backing my story and possibly punishing the woman for due care and attention

i got it hit 2 mins down the road from me churchfield road the woman was doing a U turn and pulled out without looking
cheers for the welcome back guys

so i take it the wheels were wrecked on neils car
never seen another set like it since tho

chris couldn't find his tent, matt took his car keys off him as chris was hammered but somehow managed to get into his car at 6am for a sleep.
(see pic)
but was even funnier when he turned up to register for the 1/4 mile at 8. pmsl

chris also bashed neils car door in, riggy's mate was asleep all day in the car on stand, denny stripped his entire car out and left it on the stand to run the 1/4, RIGGY drank quiet a bit.
sahun aka cooper nova brought a house (massive tent)
we had 2000watts of lighting and a generator going till ???? o'clock.
fella in the van smashed into persons car and chris drove off in it. lol

nin has his pants ripped right off by me and chris several times. lol
