Bye Bye Little Yellow MINI

[nortonski]

I kind of crashed my MINI. On the plus side, got out alive and with only a broken collar bone, shows how safe they are

I actually hit a tree at 45mph, and yes, that is my engine and gear box on the floor in front of the car :/










And this is what i have left of the car.

Na, way to much work for me. Would have been nice though. Should be picking up my next car later this week

Your front left tire looks as bald as they come. No tread left at all

Alot of people have said about that front tire, but it passed its MOT only 2 weeks before the accident so i guess it was ok

You certainly did a proper job on that one.

Seriously though, glad you made it out OK. Cars and trees don't mix well; lost a friend about 20 years ago when he spun his Metro into a tree.

Nice tear seam action on airbag.

OP... what a coincidence: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Both yellow 05 plates!
May you please tell me how much you've been paid out? I'm battling with my insurer since December for a suitable pay out!

[stabbed rat]

looks like a nasty crash, glad you got out "ok"

[nortonski]

I got a pay out of 6K

[HereBeMonsters]

45mph?

Let me guess, 50 limit?
