Worst new year yet?

A few of you know my polo so heres its new year story lol....


First off i was parked outside my girlfriends on new years eve at about 6pm when i heard my alarm go off. Turns out the kid in the fiesta opposite reversed straight outand cracked my front bumber and smashed my indicator.

Managed to sort it out with the insurance and was on the phone to them today. Went to pick the girlfriend up from college and was driving my car back up my road to go home. A women who lives down my road pulled into a drive on the right and i carried on going. Next thing i know i had a A4 rear bumber attaching itself to my front wing as she reversed out onto me. Luckly i was only doing 10 or 15mph but she's still managedto do every panel :(

Pretty sure its a right off though :( Luckly i took the Cups of for winter though :D

Happy new year :lol:

As long as you're not hurt, thats the main priority! The car is, as you've already assumed, probably going to be a write off. Especially if you have put in an earlier claim too! :roll:

Just take the positive from it, money from insurance will either allow you to buy the car back & do the repairs yourself, or let you fund another project! :wink:


Things can only get better! :D

That polo's been hurt big time :(

Even the front suspension looks bent by the looks of things. Hopefully you'll sort something out quick and just be thankful your not hurt.
