Ever felt like crying?......

Just as you've got your pride and joy just the way you want, having done all the mods, upgrades and tweaks that make her finally perfect for you....

Thanks to some clown who not only hit the car 20 yards in front of me, but then carried on and drove off, resulting in the above. Hopefully, my dashcam will have got his reg, have an appointment with Lancs Police in the morning to hand over the footage.

Just unhappy at the prospect of her being written off, but just have to wait and see.

unbelievable !

Hope you can get it fixed, looks like cheapest option would be replacement wings and both doors from a breaker and then a repair on the rear wheel arch?

Gutted for you, there really are some wrong 'un's on this planet

Hope they get caught and you get your car sorted without any financial burden on yourself!

So sorry to see that. Should be life imprisonment for that but we all know it will be a slap on the wrist.

As said it is fixable but what a pain/

I know it wont help with the repairing of your vehicle but if the moron who is responsible is identified then stress to the police that you want the driver reported for the offence of 'Fail To stop'.

Make you weep dosnt it! bet the ******* gets a slap on the wrist

Phil63 · 18th September 2015, 12:30

I've no words for you bud. I'd be crying too. I really do hope this moron gets what he/she deserves, and the car is sorted soon.

Darcydog · 18th September 2015, 13:43

You must be gutted.

Hope the dash cam got all the details.

These really are becoming an essential device these days.

Edit......

Do let us know what the police say!
