What can I say...
The B@st@rd neds strike again!!!
Some pissed up little scumbag just drove into the side of me on a roundabout!!
Minding my own business coming back from the gym, going round a roundabout and out of nowhere this red fiesta slams into the side of me! (He was doing about 40mph when he hit me). It all happened in slow motion... he appeared from behind another car (which was stopped at the roundabout waiting for the traffic) in the inside lane. next thing I saw was tire smoke (God knows how fast he *WAS* going!!) and Blam... he hit right at the front of the passenger door and smashed me into the roundabout. I look up when we stop, and he's going for his keys, gets the car started and spins the wheels off into the distance! what a feckin mess!! wrecked door and front panel and suspension and wheel buggered on the Driver's side where he pushed me into the roundabout - the bottom suspension arm is now 'V' shaped.:blackeye:
Some nice friendly motorists (cheers guys! and thanks for stopping to make sure I was ok! ) chased the wee £$^%^"£$, his car gave up 300 yards away. 3 of them were then seen legging it away from the car throwing their beer bottles over garden walls...
Police all over the place (more thanks.. couldn't have been nicer)
Last I heard they think they 'might' have found them.
MiniEmergency were VERY good They had a truck out to come get me in less than half an hour... but the final kick in the teeth was seeing that piece of Sh*t fiesta on the back of the truck FIRST!!!!!!:mad::mad::disapprove:
So now I have the fun job of all the hassle with the insurance company, and getting the car sorted and sorting out a courtesy car...
won't be getting much sleep tonight!
Got a few pics of the car... :(
