Default Another crash story

It seems that lots of us are having bumps and scrapes at the moment!

I stood and watched the woman reverse her minivan into me. I was 15 feet away saying to myself, no, she will stop, she MUST know I'm there.

Luckily I think it is just one panel and it was very low speed, so hopefully just a swap out and all is back to normal.

Oh, by the way, the woman? That would be my wife......

Hate to see that happen.
But I envy you cause now you are so up on leverage, that you could 'do anything' and 'get anything' you want - (you know what I mean) . Unless of course you were down one and now you're even.
Either way, good luck with the repair.

Oh no! That's terrible.... but as others have said, you have lots of leverage points now.

Sorry to see that, and glad no one was hurt (at least not physically, emotionally maybe, but not physically).

+1 to the schoolgirl uniform!

These stories lately have got me shievering in my boots! I have got two Porsche and the old one has a paint job worth about as much as some complete cars. Guess I better not dwell on the idea.

+2 on the school-girl outfit. Go buy some candy!
