not a huge one but funny,my brothers 200sx which he sold on,the new owner sold it on again to a guy who couldnt get insured for a day or two so he got his girlfriend to drive it home for him(insured for any car).

the nutter told her to give it a bit off a roundabout which she did,and promptly hugged the armco!

Done this to my old GSXR 600 SRAD



hit a spot of subsidence mid bend on the way to Alston/Hartside... tank slapper even with Sprint steering damper fitted... ran wide onto the grass verge then along a fence



Ambulance arrived and checked me over



Then the spinal board came out just before the Police T5 stopped



The result... a broken right arm



Pinned and plated



Getting some fresh air during my stay in hospital, nice drain/bag to trap the blood from the internal wounding.



Stitched and stapled up like so



Leaving me with scars like this

Maybe you lot need to calm the frig down!! most of you have old tin foil/rust based fords and have already cheated death once, count your blessings and slow the fuck down!

Thats why you'll never catch me behind the wheel of an old ford, new and safe all the way thanks, unless they had a proper cage of course!

My old Ballade:
(these had the original 1.5 CRX engine in them so not too slow)


I straightened the front out by tying a rope between some armco and the big bracket you see and hitting reverse several times.

I've also killed an XR2 and a mk1 miniMetro. The metro got driven around my local quarries, rally style, until it fell apart. The XR got parked inside a Primera boot.

I dont have any piccies but its fookin sore being thrown about the cab of a 7.5 tonner truck lol

Me and my workmate drive to just outside Birmingham/ Wolverhampton every sunday night in a 7 tonner truck and it was his turn to drive first leaving Edinburgh on the A702 heading for M74 at Abington (its a twisty road) , 20 mins later just before Biggar my workmate lost the back end on sweeping left corner and spun us right round before hitting the kerbside side on and tipped us over ...............right down a fookin 15ft banking on our roof and finally landed back on our wheels .............thrown about like a fuckin rag-doll and i was bracing myself for it lol

Very lucky he didnt hit anyone else as when the truck spun round he just missed a car heading towards us and they wouldnt have stood a chance in a ford ka with a fookin tailift heading towards them lol

Never mind was okies after a few months of pain and now in the process of an insurance claim for the scar i was left with on my bonce after being glue'd together again at hospital
