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

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.

Thanks for the offer but I'll be doing that myself even if it means holding my head in place with mechano

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

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.
