Realy sorry to hear this Custard.
Know exactly how your feeling having done the same to my Tuscan in April.
Looks like you hit the barrier, spun round and smashed the rear in as well.
Hope your OK.
Take quite a hit dont they.

gutted for you - as long as your ok that's the main thing.
Just a harsh reminder of what the tivs are capable of power wise.

Ah man! Gutted for you. frown

Glad you're ok. Cue all the usual rubbish about "...it's only a car..." rolleyes

I know just how you feel if it's any consolation.

Chin up mate!

Sorry to see your car like that. I think I remember it from a East Mids TVRCC meet a couple of years back and it looked excellent.

I know exactly how you feel custard, crashed mine in April.

Hope you are OK, it is such a horrible feeling, you keep reliving the moment wishing you could change what you did.

No way, glad you are ok

Still have the photos of ours together by Clifton bridge

Hope the insurance company don't mess you about and you can look forward to repairing it or purchasing something equally awesome soon.

Hi Custard,

I do feel for you.

I lost mine last month in almost the same way frownweeping

Hopefully the insurance will pay up without any problems.

All the best

Very sorry for you, but glad your OK. GRP is extremely tough, I know I work with it!

If you don’t mind me asking, but what happened??, was there diesel on the road?, were you just cruising?, or did you change down and give it some?
I can only imagine the car getting away from you in a strait line if it was either aquaplaning, or hit some oil.
