Had a fucking idiot pull out in front of me last night at a roundabout and i couldnt avoid him. He literally drove in front of me as i was going at 30 mph. Look at my car!!!!!!!!
Its dead. I estimate the parts i'll need for it to cost approx £750 plus vat, then labour, so i know they will write it off



fucking twatting bastard taxi drivers

Nooo!!!11

Bloody like that car n all.

Will the parts cost so much because you are having to buy them from a museum?

haha, actually they are cheaper than most modern bits, but it just needs a complete front end, 2 wings, 1 inner wing, bonnet, chrome bumper, front valance and front panel, grille, indicator, headlight, radiator. the chrome bumpers are £200 alone!!!!!

Old cars are cool. I remember one of my mates had a Hillman Imp for a bit. We used to have to move about in the car to stop it rolling when he was taking corners.

Did you shout 'MY CAR!!!!' in an Italian accent after the crash? If so, I reckon you'd have had all the repairs carried out for free. Why are you driving something that a communist would now be ashamed of anyway?

That is gutting, i do love triumphs.

Basically, your a big man. Go round his house and threaten his kids/wife/him with fireworks..... lev can hook you up.

haha, the driver whos fault it was was asian, and within a minute a taxi had stopped and they were speaking in there language together, then with a copule more minutes there must have been 20 of them all stood there yakking away. one of tried to tell me it was MY fault!!!! I wasnt in the mood to be fucked around and lots of them or not, i put the twat straight. Luckily i have an independant witness who saw everything and has said so to the police.

It isnt a car a communist would be ashamed of, it is a classic triumph. !00% british, made from steel and with real wood inside and proper carpets an everything. Not a pressed tin lada or wartburg like they have over there.

How old is it?

It's brown so I'm assuming '77-'82. I'm not sad enough to know the year a car was made by its registration plate, so...

Let me repeat i really like triumphs, there was a dolomite that was pretty much rotten on the same road that i used to live on and it made me have a little cry every time.

Use the insurance money and buy a Stag. Basically the best english car ever made, though clearly get one with a rover engine as the originals were notoriously wank.

Fuck that must have been annoying. They really do nothing to try and endear themselves to the wider community when they act like that.

one of the very last batch of toledos made, it was registered in 1976, but made in 75.

Id love to buy a stag, but even at my age, they would be too expensive for a humble postman!!!

From communist to BNP sympathiser in one foul swoop...

Sucks about the car... I once cut someone off at a roundabout and failed my driving test. Hurray.
