Watch out for Standing Water

[Fat Albert]

Hit a Lake on the A14 today

Unfortunately a Lotus Elan had done exactly the same earlier and I hit it

Bad day for '90s Sports cars






Go Careful out there

[nsm3]

Bad luck pal.

[lolbert]

that'll need quite a bit of T-Cut

[mudy]

Sorry to you Jeremy - terrible luck - I was out on the M4 in the 930 this morning, but terrible traffuic kept the average speed down to 30

I presume it's a right-off - hope you have an agreed value policy?

[Manicminer]

Unlucky Jeremy, I've experienced the butt clenching feeling of aquaplaning but been lucky so far. Doesn't have to involve particularly high speed either.

[Fat Albert]

Thanks Chaps, the engineer will come out in the next day or so and inspect it, we'll see what happens then

[Manicminer]

Looks like it might be repairable, I take it you are ok though?

[marky911]

Ouch!

Sorry to see that Fat A.

I hope you have a trouble-free claim and are back on the road soon.

[RDMcG]

I've had the experience. Sorry to hear the news, and good luck with the inspection.

[blade7]

That's a shame fella but obviously it's just a car, and the important thing is you walked away.

[Lordglenmorangie]

Really sorry, just glad you are OK .

[Fat Albert]

Thanks all, Impressed with how the shell held up and both doors worked Ok afterwards, good solid cars

[Mutt]

Poor car Any pictures of the Élan?

Glad you got out intact.

[BillyB]

What a bummer. Glad you are all right.

[Carl_Docklands]

Sorry to see you p&j like that.

Hope you get her back better than new.

[Trev450]

Very sorry to see this. I hope you get a satisfactory outcome.

[SimC]

Sorry for what happened but glad u are ok. We have all been there so thanks for the reminder. Good luck with the claim.

[Zyp]

That's a real shame.

Listening to the radio all day today, the traffic reports have been longer than the ad breaks!

Sounds like mayhem on the roads today.

I tried cycling this avo - took me nearly 2 hours to get 22 miles as everywhere was flooded, 4.5 ft in one place!
