Using the Chim as my daily driver at the moment I went to work at 7:15 this morning as usual. About two miles later the back end decided to try and overtake the front even at about 10mph. Just straightening it up with a Torvill and Dean impression when a minibus coming up the hill decides that he cant slow down and wipes out the offside of the car and pushing me across the lane and into the bank. Result is that the front wheels now point in different directions and every panel down the side in need of major repairs. It is now with the local dealer awaiting the insurance assessor.

Sorry to hear it. But most important of all, you're ok. A car is only a car (even if it is a Tiv).

sorry to hear that

However, you walked away without any injuries which is the most important point

How did that happen? Snow, ice, wet?
