As you mentioned, lucky the first impact was to the wheel, & not at the door. Are your hands ok? Guessing they were on the wheel at the time?

A wee bit of body filler on the door, & a T cut & polish & she'll be all repaired :shock: :lol:

Seen it coming so hands and feet were off the controls well out of harms way.

Ouch. Commiserations mate, but a lucky escape. Lots of sex and alcohol is the best cure for whiplash. :wink:

Still pretty sore today Dominic. Took the volvo out for a looksee at the caterham guys at Knockhill today and I don't think that was the right thing to do.

There is still a bit of a spanners & sponges tomorrow if you want to swing past - I'm sure we could find a task or two if your volunteering :D

On the Blantyre Farm Road (the one with the bridge) that leaves my house there are two 90deg bend - the other car came round the corner too fast and crossed over into my lane hitting a wee corsa before coming into the wheel arch of my works car and taking the door with her.
