Default looks like wrote my car off!!!

ploughed into two cars (one head on) in my v6 this morning, thanks to our tossers at the council for not gritting!!!!

lost it on a bend going down the hill by the house, just couldnt stop ( saw a chap walking with his son on pavement, heading straight towards them but managed to bounce it off the kerb away from them, before hitting the two cars!

two minutes later another mondeo did exactly the same thing and ploughed into the back off mine pushing it further into one of the cars and a small wall!

looking at the damage its a write off, only a p reg, damage is quite bad.

needs new front bumper, lights, bonnet, radiator, front drivers wing, drivers door, rear passenger door, rear quarter panel, and rear bumper.

just thankfull i didnt hit the pedestrians or i would have killed them

was only meant to have it for another week before giving it back to my dad (lloyd on here), as hes got a nice escort for me, bit of a bastard or what!!

noone was hurt though which is a good thing.

Any accident you walk away from is a good one

Nobody was hurt and that's all that matters. Gutting as it might be
