Scooby Pete Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Swiped the side of the car pulling out the driveway. Nice scrape and crushing of the rear pass door and wheel arch, scraped a spoke on the wheel aswell. Really !Removed! off with myself. Only bright spot it's going to the body shop tomorrow anyway. Just not feeling the extra £300-400 it's going to cost :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoozyDave Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 It's a horrible noise and feeling, I did it once In my first car, it's gutting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogconker Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I used to have a LWB Landrover and I had z brake failure I rolled into the Audi in front and tapped it, I thought that was lucky. When he pulled forward the boot lid was half way up the rear windscreen and the boot looked like an exploded cartoon shotgun. Not good, not done what you did fortunately but sympathise.

Scooby Pete Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Dropped the car off and it will need both Doors on pass side resprayed £150 each, rear wheel arch £150 + £250 for the bonnet, have said to leave bonnet blow over for now. Body shop said they will just touch up the stone chips for now. So hopefully will be a bit nearer £450 rather than £700. Gotta laugh he's mentioned a few times that I am quite fussy when having work done to my cars, not sure if this is his way of saying I'm a pain in the ****?

Dogconker Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 That might be what he means bit at least you keep coming back which means he's got work do he's not going to moan too much Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pommy Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Definitely means you are a pain, but as above they won't complain too much as they make some decent money off it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaulson Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Just played the "will I make it to the fuel station" game... Living in a village the closet fuel station is 10 miles away, a long way with fuel light on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogconker Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Ha Ha that's funny, I drove from Manchester to Stafford 60miles with the fuel light on and then didn't bother filling up until the next day, the joys of diesel and 60mpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pommy Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Got my Battery booster and jumped the car back into glorious life. Checked over turbo timer and attempted to reset alarm code with no luck:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby Pete Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Picked it up from the body shop, then had to go and spend £70 replacing the stone protector stickers on the rear lower door and the wheel arch. Dealer prices are a rip off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Battred an Audi a4 that thought it was going to be fun racing me. Yes thank you I do feel smug -_- 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaulson Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I had something similar on the way home from work with an S line Audi A3, tried to take me on a straight so I left him behind. Don't know why they bother lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogconker Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Really, I reckon even I could give an Audi A4 a run unless it was one of the sports ones or a turbo and I drive a diesel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
