I have just had an altercation with a citoen xantia:blackeye:, and a visit to the nearest bog8) 30 mph but I was lucky only the bumpers touched so its new bumpers all round:disapprove:.
My fualt pulled out of the parents drive on to the road just didn't see him (luckly he's a mate) the neighbours just put up a bloody wall in the line of sight.
Still at least no one was hurt and it's cheaper than the last time:D.

Sorry to hear of the bump Richard.

How much do you like your neighbours? if they never got planning permission for their wall you could get them to make it shorter if it is causing a danger to the public/ traffic - if you never saw a car then a pedestrian would be harder to spot!:eek:

Just phoned the dealer and wow MINI parts are cheap £20 for a new indicator/sidelight unit and £116 for an unpainted bumper but I didn't order the bumper yet as John is looking in to getting me a painted one.
