Put me on the "Crashed in the snow" list

[rj scotty]

Look what some idiot did, namely me



About 5mph into a plastic barrier

Bonnet is simple repair and nothing is bent but I need the following

Bumper
Ellipsoid head light (NS)
Fog light (NS)
Indicator (NS)

Ouch... Thats a pisser!!!

Quattro's are great at getting going in the snow.... But still Sh17 as other cars for stopping.. Had a near miss today in mine...

Hope you get it sorted M8..

[s2driveruk]

ah ****......what a nightmare, hope you get it fixed up ok. Is dumping down here in hampshire at the moment, at least 15cms on the car outside

[rj scotty]

Update........

Some midnight hammer and dolly action and the bonnet dose not have a dent in it

To be honest I think I got away very lightly.
I even have a full set of lower grills still (had to go back to get one of them though )

cheers

PS: I may go back and got the bollard as a souvenir

[Keeper of The Kitten]

Oh, bollards!

Damn that is not good I refuse to drive my S2 in the snow, wish i had my golf still

Confudled with that one Jamo....

S2 4-WD = Great in Snow....

Golf 2-F-WD = Mediocore to crap in snow... even worse with low profile tyres.... Just like my Fiesta ST's...

[Keeper of The Kitten]

Ah yes but broken Golf is not as much of a loss as broken S2! I don't think I'll be risking the gennie RS2 bumper when Kitty is sorted either - Fanny the Golf can take the knocks!

But in the current market my Red Golf Mk2 GTi is worth as much, if not more than my
S2....

[Keeper of The Kitten]

Unlike my dented 1.9 diesel (normally aspirated!) Mk3 ....which ain't worth diddly squat compared to the S2!

[john johnson]

thats a pisser, must admit mines ***** at times due to the aforementioned F1 tyres....hopeless
got to work easy though

[dest]

Nightmare!
Is it just the glass broken on the headlight?
Im sure you can buy that seperately, and is a lot cheaper than buying a complete unit

A new RS2 bumper from Audi is about 1k in price

I can get a Red GTI MK2 for about 500 quid

[Greg_S]

Sorry to hear about the accident, at least it wasnt other otherside taking out the oil cooler

[Rusty]

Ah crap, not another one, bad luck, hope it all gets repaired, I got away with it last time so mine's staying at home and if I have to go anywhere then I'll take the sacrificial BM.

Thank you
