What so you crashed your Clio and its NOT a Cup?? My god some people won't believe it....I was sure that only Cups crashed in the winter having see the amount of "0oooh i wonder how many Cups are left" comments.

On a serious note mate, im glad to hear you are ok. Sorry to hear about the car but as long as you are intact then thats all that matters. Cars can be replaced!

on a more serious note...unlucky mate and i hope it all gets sorted for you....glad you're ok.
 
  Astra coupe
yeh that's kinda out mine looks. we're going to try and get it out today, see if any local farmers will give it a pull out for us then try and figure a way to get it back. Dads going to try the skip hire place behind his work see if they would be willing to help out pull it out and get it back. I'll take some pictures and stuff.

Dude unlucky glad to hear your alright, i know how it feels, i crashed mine yesterday avoiding some guy in a freelander cutting a corner, dont think he seen me crash corner was pretty tight, it didnt stop anyway, not sure if the cars a write off or not, it seems pretty knackered so i think it will be.
 
  RB 197 fatty
Yup, i did the seatbelt thing too!

I say i EARNT £1750 on insurance, but i failed to mention that after i had to fork out these three things:

£1440 new insurance renewal (was 800)
£250 for vet bill (yep thats right, £250 to shoot a cow) so no it wasnt ok whoever asked
£150 to highways agency for a new 'triangular big bend ahead' sign.

....just incase anyone was plannin on crashing a newcar to make money! lol

as has been said, think yourself very lucky and as if this was just an eye opener! was for me. I laughed at first, then it hits ya. Then you just laugh again!

.... but i bet you remember the music you were listening to as you crashed (mine, The Killers - Mr Brightside), and you will never forget that crushing sound as your rolling. just you wait untill you see a crash on casualty or something next and hear the glass and the bangs... CRINGE!!!!
