Paul, is that hole in his wind screen where his face went through? or is it where you dragged him out from screaming + kicking?

Crying shame, she looked amazing yesterday as i stood there watching you exit the field - hope it works in your favour fella.

damn what a bad luck :( but still gotta remember that a car is just material (and an E30 is a damn beloved kind of material) but you're the one that's important. A car can be fixed or replaced, but of you, there is only 1 unique peace ! my best luck

Oh no, what a c**t. I'd have been going proper mental if that had happened to me.

Such a nice car, make sure any whiplash gets sorted properly too. I have a nasty feeling his insurance company won't pay out due to him being drunk. Is this what the obudsman is for?

They will have to pay out even if he was drunk, only difference is they will sue him for it.
