Very annoyed. Just had a very stupid little prangette in the tamora... got waved out of a junction turning right, thought great, off we go, only the loon in front of me decided to stop.... bump.

It can only have been a 5-10mph accident, but cracked the fibreglass on front of the car, and his exhaust pipe left a rather large hole in the radiator...

Still, i am looking on the bright side... the front of the car was absolutely trashed with stone chips anyway, and now I get it all sorted out thanks to Admiral insurance...

Still, doesn't quite make up for having an undriveable baby

Oh No!!! that is my worst nightmare Hope your Tam's fixed pretty pronto , on the plus side, as you have mentioned, you can get the whole front of the car looking like new, (maybe even an uprated aluminium radiator!!), I have found that the tam front must suck up stone chips!!!!

Sorry to have met you under unfortunate circumstances but was glad to find that you'd already been picked up when I went past that junction again about 20 mins later. I could do with a front end respray but can do without the speared radiator! Hope you're back on the road soon.

Thanks hut49... its just so frustrating... 13 years of driving accident free and to end that run in such a silly way is, to say the least, very annoying!!
