Default Ooooooo - me mum has binned her car :cry:

Silly woman binned it into a wall after skating on sheet ice down a ditch












oh well - no-one hurt, more amusing than anything, to quote her "i had to put it in 4x4 to get it out the ditch" - if it was in 4x4 in the first place, the rwd setup of the 2wd selection wouldn't of made the car go into a wall


Damage done - bolloxed front wing, all plastic trim panels on passanger side, front bumper, steering gear and front axle, front hub, rear wheel and front wheel both damaged too, and possibly rear axle aswell



at least she's been off road in it now
