The dickhead award definately goes to my boyfriend.
I let him drive my 1600 in the wet the other night and he stupidly, thinking
he was Mr Drift King went up a hill and lost it in 3rd which then popped the
accelerator cable out (somehow?!?!). He then proceeded to plough into the
side of a 24 seater bus parked at the top of the crest. The end result was
some front end damage to my baby and $2255 worth of damage to the bus (as
well as me having a fairly badly bruised knee).
We were going around 60 when we hit so the damage is fairly bad so anyone
with a front right hand panel they have lying around i'm looking!
Luckily, he's on my insurance and HE has to pay $900 as well as pay to have
my baby fixed. She's still able to be driven (thank god!) but turning sharp
corners is a worry as the tyre rubs on the guard!
I'll bring her along to the QLD datto meet at the library so you can survey
the damage.
It's so typical - i had just decided to sell it after getting bogged in the
garden bed and losing my patience with the heap of shit!! It was the car's
way of saying "how friggen dare you treat me like this!!"
