mutley Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 you could say you were a bit irresponisble for selling it to someone who was clearly a total cnut of a driver. theres only one cause for that type of accident -drivin outside of your ability for the conditions. for a car to be destroyed that quickly after it was sold means he didnt know how to drive. How old was he out of interest? Just because the poor guy crashed the car soon after purchasing it doesn't neccessarily mean he is/was a shite driver does it? A number of factors could have contributed to the accident. Lack of Knowledge of the car, not being used to its speed/handling characteristics Maybe the guy didn't know the road he was on? Maybe it was due to another road user? give the knobhead due... i dont think you can roll a car 6 times and then claim you was doing 40mph clearly he was driving like a cock!! and if you dont know the road or cars power and do it then it shows even more that his a cock...

I had a friend killed whilst driving her boyfriend home in his car, she had only ever driven a 1.1 fiesta, this was a 1.8 16v focus, she wasn't used to the concept of the car, hence loosing control of it and binning it Kind of pays to think before you post idiotic replys sometimes, espicially as your a new user and you won't get far on a board like this, unless youve just joined to take the Pee. Funnily enough i was just lookin thru your show us your shunt thread and tbh, it seems like your a bit of a cnut of a driver too! no wonder ur stickin up for someone who's done this. Btw if ur driving a new car that your not used to really fast enough to roll it 6 times, it makes you a cnut. That was my point. clearly there was noone else involved. he bought the car. he couldn't handle it. he nearly died. what a cnut.

minirotty Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 OK my opinion as it was my car..... The lads alive! who cares about opinions? I've smashed many of cars up whilst growing up, I've also driven like a dick at times and got away with it*just* haven't we all? up it's apart of life! End of the day he's not dead and he isn't injured, a car I built hasn't ended some ones life, it hasn't caused there life to change, it hasnt recked other people's lifes, so..... I happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meekstaaa Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 but surely a bit of you is sad that the car is dead..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1.8Si Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 That looks like its been in the crusher and they stopped it and took it out 80% of the way through, seriously thats the first thought i saw upon seeing it. Lucky lad, not trying to contradict myself from my previous statement, but he must have been going some ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bongo Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 unbelievably lucky to survive that ,dont think he'll be driving fast for a while.shame about the car also,a lot of work went into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1.8Si Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I know how you feel minirotty. There is a guy on another forum i used to visit sometimes, he sold his fiesta turbo to another popular forum member, sadly driving home he crashed the car and was tragically killed. Id hate to have to live with the ' what if ' statement that maybe something you did to that car could have possibly resulted in the accident which killed/seriously injured the new owner, its normally unlikely, but its human nature to think like that.

Craig855S Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 done a proper job of that aint he, PMSL at the tax disc ending up in the wheel, DVLA say the car is taxed til apr 08 so it must just be an old disc form inside the car. The guy is a loser! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I think most of the people on this thread are inconsiderate annoying people. This guy has had a serious car crash and all you can do is mock him? For all you know he may have broken both legs and may never walk properly again? Yeah and just try and say "serves him right".. Could have swerved for a deer or something.. And you could easily roll a car 6 times at low speed if you hit the right obstacles towards a ditch! As per usual, bunch of dickheads spouting their mouths off without engaging a single brain cell first. Way to go chaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
