she had been passed a total of 1 week

i was stationary and she didnt manage to slow down much, just panicked and brakes locked up from damage would estimate 15-20mph?

shes hit you lot harder than that, i'd say about 30+. I was hit about 20mph an all it bent as the boot bit that it fixes to not the arches.

woman driver

I think this is the most important point to note. Women can't drive for sh!t. FACT.

problem being this nova (before i had it) has already had a rear end shunt so wouldnt be v.strong plus didnt have a spare wheel so wheel well collapsed mate

has it had a re-spray since the first rear-ending? Pic looks like paint faded bad. then otehr pics looks ok. (or is it just a big t-cut)?

You say ur not claiming? If she's not paying for the damage what is she going to do? :?:

bad one mate...... :? I think the towbar woulde'nt have helped things either, it's taken the floorpan with it by the looks of things. i remember a good few years ago when my old B reg SR was shunted from the rear :(

Here's a pic of it before it was destroyed by a blind old GIT !!

Not being funny but I think looking at pics from its life I think its death was a little overdue.

The original Nova SR, with old school Recaros and front bumpers, they lost their character after that..... :? this was another SR I had about 6 yrs ago, It was de badged & reprayed,& was given a Janspeed 4 branch manifold & system, along with spax TA II adjustable front struts with sport ones on the back and cross drilled disks & lowered by 50mm.
