Post subject:  OT: Wifey smashed the car! :(
The mini is now the primary vehicle in our household after my wife ran up the back of a car last night with the commodore after it started raining. Practically 10 metres from the driveway of our house! :cry:

The radiator is leaking, the aircon condensor has been pushed into the radiator. The front of the car looks ok on the outside but inside the engine "frame" or whatever is bashed in pretty badly. It looks like there's slight tow in or something :? I was hoping she totalled it so I could get a pay out :lol:

Blardy car in front had a massive bull bar so there was nearly no dammage at all to their car, our bombabore on the other hand fared quite badly.

I've had to get NRMA to tow it as I can't even open the bonnet to top her up with water to drive 1 km up the road to the smash repairs... There goes $450! :cry:

But at least my no claim bonus is safe :) The little lady is shaken but not stirred, had to drive her to work in St Leonards today in the mini 8)

Glad to hear she's ok, and that it wasn't the mini!!

I like commodores, but they're replaceable!!!

Good to hear everyone is safe, lets hope the commodore is written off! :D
So, Lillee will be getting a work out for a while I take it?

Thanks guys...

Yeah Lillee is definately getting a work out :wink: The daily drivers from Strathfield to St Lennards didn't know what hit em this morning :lol: Little red fast ball coming through :lol: *toot toot*

Yeah, this bomadore has been through A LOT... I've had it in the family for 7 years and my first car. Took me through my P's, driven practically around australia... If she goes it will be good but it is a little sad... Anyway not much personality in the bombadore, never gave it a name so can't be that good :lol:

It could still be a writeoff, if you bent the chassis rails it'd be an economic write off, same as if the strut tower bent.

Sweet! The engine was playing up too, I think the auto box has had it. I'd be glad to get $$$$ instead for it. What will I buy though?? :? :lol:
