ran out of talent

Was going for a nice drive through some country lanes.

I Was going too quick tbh - not over the limit (nsl), but there is subsidence on the road :(

Came round a corner, saw a bit of traffic... lifted off :( ... and the back end spun round... ended up going backwards for a bit... hit the other side of the corner... bounced off the bank and then the front scraped the other bank and i stopped on the wrong side of the road :o

heres the damage :(







the wheel is set back - looks like ive bent the subframe :( - the is also the same wheel as pictured above. the other wheels are fine



back bumper is scratched - i was going to replace this anyway due to the crack under the OS light cluster

heres another bit im worried about



Looks like its just dented the sill.. not sure if this is structure. Its still all true underneath

I think i got off very lightly considering.. could've ended up so much worse!!

Is that alloy refurbable? how much d'ya reckon? £50? (new tyres too ofc)

how many thousands [sic] to sort the front wheel out? :(

[bass_direct]

wheels can be refurb'd..

subframe won't be to much, sure some has a spare

sorry to hear that dude!

[Matty86]

hopefully get it sorted soon and this could be the push i need to get the williams wide track done :D
