Post subject:  smashed the sh*t out of it!!
This morning on the way to uni, I was in an accident in my mini (1993 Rover Mayfair). A woman came at me head on, on my side of the road, and there was nothing i could do about it. Shes written my car off, but i walked away with little more than a sore neck and shoulders. :x
Im devastated. It took me years to save and look for a decent Rover, and I just ordered $3000 worth of parts from the UK.
Could get it fixed but theres so much damage A-Grade panels think its not worth it, and now im just thankful that ive still got my legs (as im an elite distance runner), so i think il get a slightly more safer car.

Sad day.
:cry:

Sorry to hear about your mini , try and save it if you can , as for your comment about getting a safer car , you've already got out of a head on with a sore neck and shoulders than it can't be too unsafe . Nothing you can do in situations like that except hang on and wait for it all to stop . Any photo's of the damage ?

Safer car?
Over the course of last year there were at least 8 minis pranged or written off.
Everyone walked away.

Sorry about your car, I hope all works out for you.

sydney poeple cause havoc in Geelong. They seem incapable of reading road signs if they have a caravan on the back.

IT SAYS ADDED LANE, TOOLS!

Man, I hate to hear of the demise of any Mini - they're all so unique in their own particular way. Glad that you're ok though

Bye

Superannuants from any state or city and pulling a caravan are a worry anywhere. Most of them waver between 60 and 90 kmh on any road or highway and have an attitude that says I have paid tax all my life and now i own the road.

Thanks for the support guys. Yeah got her details and the car insured, only for $9300 though and most poeple sell their Rovers for about $15000, it WAS in very good condition bar a few scratches.
heres a list of the parts i had ordered from UK, which were ready for shipping:
13 by 7 superlite yoko package.
Sportspack arches.
Crystal rear lenses.
clear repeaters and indicators.
cooper mirrors.
silver bonnet stripes.
cooper badging.
Was gonna get a new paint job too. The same BRG but with silver roof.

oh well. Would have been fun.
