Well I have the overwhelming urge to cry my ****in eyes out :cry: my valver is in a bit of a bad state :cry: :cry:

I was going to see d_diddy to sort some parts out after I finished work. Coming off the A52 to get onto the M1 @ j25, going down the slip road and slowing down for the lights I heard an almighty crash & some scraping, then got hit by something - a wheel, hub, part of a rear axle & suspension :shock:- smashed my rear qtr window and hit me on the back of the head & then in front of me I see a corsa flying & rolling through the air, over the top of me, followed by a lamp post all landing in front of me :shock: :shock:

The lad drivin the corsa, said he hit the kerb at 70 & it flipped him all over the place, how the **** he got out that car I do not know ( I'll post pics later)

My lovely valver is fooked :cry: I've got no doubt it will be written off, the roof is creased, B pillar & door are bent in several places, the rear qtr window frame is deformed.

The adrenalin has worn off now & I think a trip to hospital is in order as my head, neck, shoulder & back are pretty painful right now :evil:

Mate not good, get yopur self checked over, even if its just for the compo off the other driver. If the car is shot get another shell and put all your good bits on it and use the extra doe to trick it up more?
Hope you ok dude. :shock:

Thanks for the replies guys

No doubt its a write off the structure itself is beyond repair imho, it's bent & doesn't drive straight

Don't worry I'll take the clown to the cleaners

I sort of feel sorry for the guy I've been on the giving and recieving ends of car crashes so I know how it works, we all learn from our mistakes some do any way

I didn't go to punch fcuk out of the kid as I seriously thought he was dead and since I deal with horrible sh*t @ work a bit of professionalism as well as shock takes over and you just get on with what needs to be done.....just going to be a busy day on the phone tomorrow

I will put pics up, just cba right now and havin a few beers with my m8s
I'll probably be drivin a celica gt4 for a bit while I decide how best to go about buyin another Mk1

Gt4. Nice bit of turbo power there eh?

Get a Ph1 Willy mate. It's a good time to buy the way things are. I've seen some minters for same money I spent on mine. I like mine though and it's near enough spot on now :D

Of course...you could just wait for a Mark1 with ITB's to come along for sale... ;)

Damn that is a shame - can see a lot of time/money/effort went into your motor. Good thing no one was hurt, seriously.
Cars can be replaced...easily.

As you are injured, get yourself checked over and claim for the injuries accordingly - no need to be 'overly hurt' in nature at hospital.

As per advice above: Buy a Williams 1 when you are on the look out again. It really is like owning your very own piece of history :D
I will keep my eye out for a new project thread with a freshly sorted Williams 1 chassis 8)

Well I've been on the phone to angel assist - part of help hire- and they are sorting everything out for me :D

I'll have a hire car by later this afternoon to keep until I get cleared funds in my account as full settlement including compo, so every cloud eh? :roll: :lol:

Never heard of these people until someone on C16v mentioned it and I can't sing praises for them enough :D

I will add you to msn mate when I get home.

It's basically a Williams 3 with 4 pots, private plate, 94k, s/s exhaust, cup front springs and avo adjustables on the rear.

It's in pretty good condition - just either want a no hassle sale or I will keep it to rebuild and return to standard next year.
