Just had a mini crash in my polo
gutted
Happened about an hour ago. I was coming out of my mum and dads estate, and a car comin in the opposite direction drove round a parked car and didnt see me. the only way i could avoid it was to mount the curb at 25mph. meaning i now have 2 flat tyres with one major foooked alloy wheel.
I only have one space saver spare wheel so have put that on the fooked alloy 'corner' just need a tyre for the other alloy

That doesn't sound good.
Ive just scratched funk out of my front wing, washing off bird sh1t.
Manage to polish it out, but can still see the marks if it catches the light

Unlucky m8
but could have been much worse, you did good to avoid it the best you could - else there would have been far worse damage to the bodywork itself

yes so need to get some new wheels for it today. as one of the alloys is totally gone (it was the worst corroded one- but still) and I am going to sell the others as they are all good with little corrison.

Sorry to hear that. Just think yourslef lucky that your ok. Remember, you can replace a car but you can't replace a life.

Thats unlucky, but you can always turn this around....
Use this as a new excuse to get some wheels!!!!
Or i may be selling mine soon, 2 have a little corrosion, but not bad for a 5 yr old car!
