Jesus! Thats fucking awful! bet your gutted and severely pissed off. Im suprised you didin't drag the guy out of his car and kick his head in. Then plead self defence in that it was attempted mured. Wonder if you could get him for that? he deserves it. Hate drink drivers! please tell us its repairable. :(

Wrong Place Wrong Time Matey gutted for you as it is obvious that a lot of time and care was spent on your car,these fuckers deserve jail.
Pleased to see that he smacked his ugly fuckin head against the windscreen,demand a re-shell from the insurance and sting the fuckers for everything,whiplash and your time/phonecalls and running about getting it sorted.

Let us all know what happens to the cunt as they normally get to court sharpish.

Reedy

I hope it all gets sorted. But I fear that firstly the insurance company will say "Its only an old G reg BMW. Heres £2K" or they'll list on on the total loss register and any value in the car will be buggered!

FWIW Wings and Hood are £400 ish each. F Bumper is over a grand!

p.s. Dnt rag the Passat too hard they're pretty fragile nowadays! :cry:

So sorry to see that m8. Of all the cars the stupid pr**k had to take out it had to be one of the best looking and cleanest examples of an M3 in the country.

Fingers crossed you can get her back on the road soon buddy.

Terrible news mate, at the weekend the same thing nearly happened to me! A woman driving at about 60-70mpg, driving in the middle of the road, i got out of her away and no more - nearly went through a hedge. I was so tempted to U-turn the car, go after her and smash her fucking mobile phone!


Hope you get her back on the road!
