ManwithSupra Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 I dont know if you guys know but now 4 weeks back i had a smallish accident which is costing me a new passanger wing new rear wheel and some damage repair to the left passenger rear arch... They say it never rains it pours...... I decided to get the car reapired out of my own pocket as i dont want to loose my NCB on my inusrance... all fine and good, the new wing is on and its all hunky dory.... now the problems start, I need the front bumper wing and rear qtr sprayed and repaired, and before i can do this i need to get the car to the bodyshop, before i can do that i need to get another rear wheel, so after sourcing the wheel from the States it fianly arrives 3 weeks later :thumbdown and what do i find..... its the wrong one then at work i get made redunadant and i have been there less than 2 years which is a problem, now i have to get another wheel wait 3 weeks again probably and then get it all fixed up ready to go lol, so in about 4 weeks time (2 months after the accident) i will finaly be able to drive my car I tell you what... i miss driving her..... the first car i have actualy missed driving...lets hope i get another job soon otherwise she will have to go and that will be the worst thing of all. Oh well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 at least yours is legally driveable, if you had more than 3 wheels and if it was repaired!!! i got to wait another month to MOT and register mine! could you not recover/trailer the car to the bodyshop, and get that done before the wheel arrives?

lust2luv Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Could you not buy a cheap stock wheel off someone on here? Of just use the spacesaver to get it to the bodyshop? I've also been without a driveable Supe for nearly a month myself, so I feel your pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
