eerm...Skoda didnt stop and just carried on into the rear of the chim, then a ford ploughed into the back of her! Chim looked the best of the three...just shows how well built our cars are!

Sorry to here.
Had a guy run up the back of me 2 months ago. It always hurts to see your p&j in bits. Mine was back in 2 weeks and looks as go as new.
Good luck with the repair.

bad luck,
there's only so far 'defensive driving' can protect you,
in terms of say leaving a distance between cars,

trouble is you begin to look a bit, well, OLD if you do it.

will it polish out dya' think

its in the garage having an assessment done, looks worse than I origionally thought with a fair bit of cracking around the exhausts and across the bumper, I think the left pipe may have been kinked out a wee bit. I think it will be visiting the TVR doctor after Les Mans.
Now...how can I get a new set of tryes outa the insurance so I can do some burnouts at Les Mans
thanks for all of your thoughts

Oh noooo...bad luck, Rooster.

Hope you get your P&J fixed ASAP. I'd be devastated if someone rear-ended my Trev - I'm pretty sure he'd never be quite the same afterwards!

Bad luck Roo.

Still it is a good excuse to plaster your rear with some stickers for Le Mans without worrying about the paintwork.

Sorry to hear about the smash, I had the same thing happen to me in the 3rd lane of the M6 at about 1720 on Friday...the dozy was looking for her inhaler...

Hope things are sorted for you quickly.

Bad luck Roo, hope it works out OK. See if you can get Zippee to negotiate your loan car while yours is being done!
