Madmax Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 Whent out to go down the cash machine, had me mum shoutin and screamin at me and forgot i left the car in reverse. Basically whent to start the car and it whent flying backwards strait in to the garage door and brick wall. Smashed the rear passenger light, also the boot wont shut properly so i think its bent the passenger rear wing inwards. Looks like i need a new boot lid, new rear light and maybe the rear wing bending back. Is this fixable??? How much mite it cost???
AndyCanning Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 i cant believe that, i did that on saturday but when past a secuirty metal fence, outside of car and now when i finally jumped in and stopped the car , the door was above and in the wing, could not believe it, feel for ya i really do, mine is gettin fixed this week. i have to climb out of passenger door to get in and out!
Madmax Posted November 15, 2004 Author Posted November 15, 2004 the damage looks about the same as geordie arrons (soz bout speling) so hopefully shuldnt be to bad. But me tailgate dnt lock or shut now!! These things just bring a grown man to tears!!!!
Ex-Finesse Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 Ouch mate Hope it's easy enough to fix. I nearly reversed into a electrical box a few weeks ago. Somebody decided to put one in a car parking space
