yep im ok but am VERY GUTTED!!!!!
Sold whats left of the car for Ł400 e.g. engine, logbook, plates, and whats left of the shell..
the engine was 1000miles old!! cost nearly Ł700 to rebuild but now its time for a more improved turbo ) hoping to save enough to buy the one off of t28.. if not looks like theres another project on the line..

xr-craig - went a bit too fast down a hill and the ABS didnt work.. plus it was icy so hit the wall at about 90..

there were 2 of us in the car but god must have been looking over us at the time as i didn't have a seat belt on and got away by a blackeye but the passenger escaped un-injured.. luckily and also the police let everything drop so i got away with a ban..

How on earth can you "not remember"?? I have a mate who drives like a lunatic and refuses to wear a seatbelt - how can anyone even think about it after all the footage/pics/warnings relating to people not wearing belts? Insanity, talk about reducing your chances of living

Agree with Kim here, bet YOU have done more than that speed before and if the same thing happened you'd post it up and want sympathy!

Glad your ok mate, and shame about the car!

heeman10 easy - I GET IN THE CAR START THE ENGINE AND DRIVE.......i.e. forgetting to put the seatbelt on USUALLY until something twigs!!! Or until my fella reminds me, so please dont preach to me....I dont think or all the pictures etc i see on here when i get in my car, i think more about the route im taking and sorting out my tunes for the drive etc...

But as that is OFF TOPIC, ill leave it there


As I say mate, gutted for you

Kim - Change your brain to make putting your seatbelt on a habit! The majority don't even think, it just slips safely over our shoulders and around our waste Don't want to see your car posted up in a similar state and hear of your injuries. It's bound to happen to us all one day, give yourself the best chance you can chuck

@ non-driving 16 year old preaching about speeding.

And also @ James trying to smooth his way in with the ladies by making them wear their seatbelts - suppose they can't get away quickly if they're strapped in eh?
