#1: My first little shunt, joys Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Sun Jan 09, 2011 9:26 am ---- Dont you just hate it when your day is sh*t then gets worse on the way back from the pub?
Bit tired, but usual for me as it was about 2am but thats average time, im going down the normal road home when the back wants to become the front
Next thing i know ive nicely slid into a bank
Photos below, but all the luckily is need is a front bumper, mesh and foglight ( mesh popped out onto the road )
Ah well s**te happens, now ive learnt just to take that road with a little more care when frosty (first frost for a few weeks now)

Shame it wasn't the back one that fell off. He might be able to stick something that actually looks good on it then

I have indeed, but this one is repairable, its just broke in the common places
And ive got spare fogs, plus the mesh is ok so win win

I have/ had the fixed spax kit and now I think the passenger side shock has failed. Knocking like a beast when driving and squeeks when you bounce it stationary
