Crash at Meadowhall??????

[tommmineh]

just got a red fr with suspension and a drivers side airbag (seat) in at work is it yours??? where did your car get recovered too?

Doubt they took it all the way to Sussex tbh! I hear it's at a garage round here

Id also gave up to, tho my winter tyres on the corner held very well, and I didnt feel any give.

You got round to fitting them then

Ya just to clear a few points up we werent racing... but I can see how people might think we were.. so if u do, fair enough!

As mentioned, we had both slowed down, and was taking it easy (always seems to be when I drive nicely!)

Sarah - I will need a service... just wont be for a few weeks now atleast!

Rash - Nah, too far Tho atleast you can tell them there twin is in for some work to!

Muddy - I did indeed, and even tho I dinked the kerb, they are great tyres, deffo going to get another alloy with a toyo on, and keep the set.. worth every penny (as long as u dont bin it... )

Rash - Yes, im afriad it does indeed show this, I wish I could say this was the first time... but its not.... ive had the otherside go off before but not worth trying to get Seat to do anything.

mpm - cheers matey, my new pay rise will come in handy paying this off

Anyway, unless people want a random thread to go off topic (and to stop me feeling like a right goose) I think we can leave it there

Please!

@ sparky, sorry mate, couldnt resist, but seems to me and others (cough* blackcupra*cough) that you were infact racing and with the roads being super greasy was an accident waiting to happen.

Hope you get it sorted though matey.

 

[mattyfab]

Definately wasnt racing. If we were, we'd have both binned it into each other on that corner, cos it was like ice.
I had the gf in the car anyway, and any sort of driving fast results in me getting my ass spanked!!!

Good for you.

 

[Cupra_Jay]

sorry to hear about yoru accident mate, hope the car gets sorted fine

sounds like you got off better than i did when i had my accident last week, and i was only going 10mph!! airbag didnt go off though. shows though you dont have to be going uber quick to cause a lot fo damage to your car!!

am looking forward to when the decent weather returns, no more dodgy road surfices!!

Bad news sparky, sorry to read this
hope all gets sorted for you

think maybe there's a note here for everyone, even tho we all know the roads are greasy and slippery, always expect the unexpected!!!

Cheers, tho will be down to a Kent meet once the longer days come! (do u have any of them Seat Sport vinyls!?)

 

[davels]

oh no just found this so thats at least 3 red FR's of the road at the minute then, my drivers bag went off in mine for some reason , just think all these black FR's getting the advantage now


glad your ok anyway sparky

 

[T. Spark]

Cheers matey, im fine... got my dads Daewooooo 1.5 Astra wanna be automatic to get me to work and back

All of a sudden I now know why people dont do 60mph on straight bits of road when I can.... it feels sooooo bad!

Hope ur feeling a little better matey!

When I get my car back, im saying sorry (buying it something!) like I always do...

Just looks like its a turbo, manifold, injectors & clutch... aswell as fixing it

Bleedin' cars

 

[RichieRich]

hey T. Spark what toyo's u got on your car?

 

[mattyfab]

Must be slicks

 

[RichieRich]

not really as slicks give extra grip like the F1 cars... worn out tyres maybe lol

 

[davels]

slicks only grip when it's dry, any sign of damp or grease and they lose it

 

[mattyfab]

It was cold, wet icy and greasy, hence the slicks comment!!
