How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

That was what my mate was getting upto on Friday night! :eek: He is a zoner, just a very sore zoner ATM.

He was coming up a road, a speeding car in the middle of the road coming down. He was made to lock up trying to avoid the twat, back stepped out- over corrected, spun it twice before bending it in HALF around the lamppost. No near side passengers would of survived, especially since the FPAS seat had been bent and 'creased' into where the Center console used to be.
The other side is quite scary too, how bent the rear really is a chilling sight! The guy who recovered it on Saturday night said its the most bent car he's ever seen anyone walk away from. He even took 10 pics coz he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

The ONLY straight part on the entire car is the front!! Strut brace was worth it structure in gold! I would recommend one to my mum! Hell after this I would recommend a full roll cage!

He managed to walk away with 2 broken ribs and a slight bout of concussion! Truly blessed! 8O

Will put up more pics later when in from work.

Ok so I was the driver of that great touring. Thanks to the the exact information of where my car is two people were already trying to take bits and pieces of my car. For anyone having funny ideas.. I am watching and the police is ready to be there in 2 minutes. One of them had an ugly rusty white touring thinking to find some free parts. Hell NO MATE! Police just dealt with him. :evil:

Really?

The location was posted for all to see, it is pretty obvious that this would happen.

This is why the zone can be bad sometimes, it is like these mongs that post "4 days until my 2 weeks in Tenerife" on facebook and wonder why the house got done over while they were away :(

I'm taking pain killers and will be fine. e30 addicts will always have at least one 325 in the garage.
