foxdie Posted January 18, 2004 Share Posted January 18, 2004 (edited) Going down my favourite twisty road, on-comming 4x4, i mount the kerb to miss. ended up missing the "tank" but just as i bumped down off the kerb i hit a root of a tree sticking out from the verge of the slope at the side.... BOLLOX!! Cant really see in the light. Looks much worse than it is, (had to get the recovery bloke out tho) Looks like lower-tracking arm, bush and arm, and maybe a set of shocks. Anyone now from looking at teh pics if im right, and how much my thinking to repair. The bumper obviously needs doing, but thats not important at the mo. (Dont feel sorry for me cos i was driving too confidently anywayz!) Edited January 18, 2004 by foxdie_GTI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
