Am speechless.
but why???????????? why is it funny???? mate i would be gutted! if that was a willy i wouldnt laugh
I think gutted, bizzare and funny is how I felt when I read it. Also glad that it was a slow speed prang and no one was hurt. Been in similar scrape and, imho, laughing these things off is the best way to look at it. Hope it don't cost too much, that's all.
Heh, and that scrape was wrapping a Suzuki driver door round a pillar while reversing at 3 kph. I was turned inside, looking back but should have known the crunching sound was not a good sign. Only realised it after clearing the driveway. No end of ribbing from the panel beaters. Hee!
Oops :oops:
You're not alone mate - I've seen it done quite a few times before. Even on track days :shock:
