My Z4................... My way.

[Bozzy]

I asked on my post yesterday " I wonder what tomorrow will bring?"
It brought a close encounter with Forest f***ing Gump, that's what.
Behind him at the roundabout and he set off, as did I but. . . . . . . . a car appeared coming round the island and instead of accelerating he panicked and stopped. My fault, I accept that, but this is a direct result of people cutting others up and having to go quicker than you'd like.

Tony.

ps. On video he said "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" which did not really help. The audio was a bit blue.

That's a swine mate, not really your fault but in this case but insurers obviously don't see it that way.
How did the other care fayre ?.

a relation of Ronnie ...... Pickering then?

hopefully looks an inexpensive fix Tony.
But if they do write it off, can I have the sills?

Glad you're OK, even though feeling a bit pig sick at the moment no doubt.

The bumper may just clip back in at the sides with a good thump if the clips are not broken.

After surgically removing my front splitter on a kerb out Leicester way back in Feb. on my way to M.O.T. training day I bought another one recently and finally got round to fitting it tonight.

Sorry to see that Tony, one of the easiest accidents to have, I have nearly done it several times.

 

[Jack Ratt]

Tough luck mate, I really feel for you. Hopefully it wont be too painful to put it right

 

[g8jka]

Sorry to see this Tony, at least your fine and the damage doesn't look too bad. Hopefully an easy fix, I'm sure you'll have it back to top condition in no time.

Thanks Dave, as I said, I hold my hand up and admit my fault. I will add the video when I can make a "muted" version. Also you would not believe what happened to Shirl later that same day when she was heading home in her Eos. I'll post the video when I can.

Tony.

ps. When I see Forest Gump on the way to work in the future I will be in front of him before that roundabout, you can take that to the bank

Not good, to see a damaged Roadster.
I wish you, that the repair costs are cheap for you.

 

[t-tony]

Thanks for that Michael. Shouldn't be too bad.

Tony.

Tony.

Sounds good
Have a good weekend

 

[t-tony]

Sure will Thanks, you too

Tony.

 

[Mint]

Bad news Tony but at least you're ok. Hopefully not to costly to repair.

 

[Redline]

Oh ****!
Nobody hurt (physically at least). It can be fixed - that’s the important thing.
Hopefully little damage to the other car.

Just polished his towball really Ian.

[Grumps]

Got the spare grills off the 2.5 "if you want them @t-tony their yours, Fins are black not grey.View attachment 84321

Lovely thought mate. I do love this forum for things just like this.

Had that happen twice in a couple of days in the FL2 - I hadn’t moved on either occasion. Just got hit from behind. The other car always suffers badly when it happens.
One of life’s bitter experiences when you’re on the wrong end of it.

 

[Faheem]

Bit late on this but I'm happy to hear that you're okay and that it's nothing too serious with the car either.

 

[t-tony]

Thanks mate, mainly my pride got dented.

Tony.

 

[Royaloak]

How are you doing with your repairs Tony?

 

[t-tony]

Just got a message that the brace panel is winging it's way to me. So soon I'll have the bumper off and see exactly whats what.

Tony.
