Never thought I would see anything like it.

Something truly disturbing.

I have really struggled to talk about it on here.

It gives me nightmares and throws everything I have learned on here into disarray.

Do you want to know what it was?

Yes?

Well, I'll tell you.

A woman with a co...

No, not that, that didn't disturb me. It was a Micra K11 on being put onto a breakdown lorry. That's right, a K11 had broken down! I'm sat here shaking my head at the thought. Truly distressing!

Couldn't get pics. As soon as I saw it I rushed home and applied copious amounts of eye bleach. The stain on my memory still remains though!

I feel genuinely sorry for you at the moment dude. The site must have been a truly traumatising experience.

You could have tried to take a pic but just like a vampire, the micra wouldn't show up.

I'm sure it's more likely the owner had dropped dead whilst out shopping and it was being transported home.

Try not to worry too much.

I'm hoping it was something minor, such as running out of petrol. I dearly hope it was that or the owner dying. As bad as that sounds. smile

hehe

I would have been doing something illegal too. Driving whilst holding a mobile device is bad enough, but photographing a tank like this in distress? Bad form mister, bad form.

apparently one of my good friends scrapped her k11 micra because it failed it's MOT on tyres and brakes. after a quick look over the car and a little test drive just before it got picked up i think they were telling fibs.

Broken aux belt perhaps, leading to its running out of electricity.

Even immortal cars have mortal fan belts...

I have heard tale of a K11 that has broken down twice.

Once for a knackered alternator (not the belt) and once for a fuel injection fault. It's a trustworthy source, I nearly broke down in tears.

I reckon it ran out of fuel, or had the wrong stuff put in, can be the only answer!

One can hope. You must have to be real spinster to get one of them repossessed though.
