flukey-lukey Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 cheers for the comments guys, went to see it today, i was really shocked. the drivers side is 10 times worse then the pics of the passenger side. the only salvagable (sp?) thing from the exterior was the passenger side clear repeater. the roof on the drivers side was crushed down level with the top of the door, ripped a wheel off (recovery guys couldnt find it:blink: ) headlights and front bumper were missing exhaust was poking out where the drivers side rear wheel used to be im waiting for my mate to email the pics over or stolen?

Mike B Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Sorry To hear dude, glad you are ok. If you are anything like I was it takes a few weeks before you stop going over it again and again. But is does go and you'll be back to normal again! your not the first, and not the last, have a look at mine below - that was 2 years ago. 4x4 fence post marks all over the thing. Did you have the stereo on? The reason i ask is that when the lights go out, the car stopped moving, the engine off, all you can do is wonder what that awful noise is... then you realise the music track you had just been enjoying all so well now sounds like world war three... Those who have experienced will know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyknox Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 So sorry to hear this. It seems that when these cars bite, they bite hard. This is a wake-up call for me, I have been getting a little too cheeky with mine lately and am now thinking its more luck than judgment!

Gazboy Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Damn sorry to hear this Ryan. I've been very careful in mine since my small crash. I never use the standard Auto Drive in the wt other than the motorway, always use manual mode now and select gear by gear. At least then I know I',m not going to get any bad surprises from the box. Hope you get back on the road soon pal. Greg Why? Is your gearbox/ecu completely fucked? The box will change down for a reason- a reason you give it. It's not like Toyota installed the Fuck Up Fairy is it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gzaerojon Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 cheers jon, well matey, lost both the front lights, both the rears fell out, one badly scuffed i promise to make the sets for the next one last a bit longer! don't worry, we'll do a full clear conversion next time at a good price strangly enough the 18's i took off to fit the stock rims were the same volk wheels you have hope you get things sorted soon mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
