carl0s Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 That carbon fibre bonnet stood up well. Does it just bouce back into shape or something? How come the car was on a K-reg (says 1999 in the linky)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 It's horrible seeing your old car crashed. I know. Can't say it would bother me on iota, to be honest. I would be concerned if it was my current car though I have never got my head around this emotion for cars thing. They are just a bit of bent tin. Glad no one was hurt though, could have been nasty, was he wearing a proper full harness in a proper seat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have never got my head around this emotion for cars thing. Yes..but you don't use or look at your cars in the same way. Your view of a great car is one that performs perfectly, looks straight underneath and never needs washing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I wouldn't say never NEEDS washing, never GETS washed maybe I overhauled the steam cleaner yesterday, it's been leaking and not making much pressure or heat. Now it's spot on, so I may have a quick blast over the cars soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I may have a quick blast over the cars soon! To be fair, it's not like you have hours of spare time to be claying, waxing and polishing your fleet. There's too many critters to contend with.

Ian W Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 There's too many critters to contend with. I can only begin to imagine how long it would take to clay bar and wax an Eagle Owl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's too many critters to contend with. I have to admit that should I forego the pub and invest that time in polishing I could probably enter the Volvo in the Pebble Beach Concours. But that just isn't going to happen now, is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 How in all that is holy did he get that car onto its roof? Its gotta have a centre of gravity near the floor and the wheels at all four corners!! Spinning into an obstacle I can understand. Well give the lad a pat on the back I bet there aren't many that can say they rolled a rex and walked away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
