Got a message online today from a guy advising me that the young bloke from Rocky who bought my car back in May put it on its side the other day , and doesnt think it will be back on the roads. Hope the young bloke is alright.

all those hard earned $$$ and love and now its prob gonna be pulled apart and parts sold.

classic call on the roundabouts

he only had it 2 months too, so i bet he's pretty pissed about it. but im sure he will have a bit more respect for decent power and a mechanical LSD next time

[TTT]

I bet no insurance to top it off

JEBUS.....

Thats shot of the under side where the car is just resting up against the house is scary... Damn lucky...

Looks like that big boulder on the right of that photo was the bumper that stoped the car from smashing into the house and caused all the damage to the front right corner, and probablly is what flipped the car onto its side also... Damn lucky...

[gumflapper]

HOW THE FU*K did he get it up like that...

damn... that was a nice car...

similar thing happened to the guy who i sold my old car too... completly smashed it up... but it didnt really bother me coz it was my old oil leaking, sqeaking proton!

was the guy ok?

[Damit]

WOW was the driver ok after seeing those shots

[Spooner]

yeh he came out ok. just a few scratches and bruises by the sound of it. he did have insurance, so we'll wait and see if they pay up for it.

I would be beside myself if I had done that to it. I loved that car like a child, lol

[rolzy32]

damm.. round-a-bouts can be confusing... Also can be alot of fun 2 with a little practice.. .. not fow this guy tho

how old was the driver? early 20's i guess?

[Munkyb0y]
