My wifes ex-husband let his girlfriend borrow his newly acquired M5 this morning - and promptly drove straight into the back of a Discovery complete with towbar

 

Going to be expensive

Good job she didn't do it to his VX220 Turbo, she'd have probably killed herself

[chrishill 0]

let his girlfriend

 

now ex-girlfriend?

He's not exactly short of cash if he's got a VX220 Turbo and an M5.. so I guess its not really any skin off his teeth to get it sorted! ;)

 

Still has to suck though! :(

[Andy665 0]

He swapped his VX for the M5 last week, spent ages looking for a clean one with straight bodywork - bit of a wasted effort now

hehe yeah i'll bet she does to appologise for that! :lol:

If that wasnt such an expensive car it'd be written off. I reckon if it was a Corrado with that much damage it'd be a write off. Just add up the cost of a new bumper, bonnet, wing, grill and headlights and your Corrado's a write off!! :lol: :lol:

 

What sort of repair bill is he facing for that? Anyone want to hazard a guess? £5000 or more?

[Andy665 0]

£5000 was my first guess but reckon it will be higher, one headlamp unit is smashed (Xenon), on a BM that has to be £600-700 in itself.

ooops, just reread it and it's an M5 and for that crime she should be banned from driving!! What a machine.... I'll give £3K for it and fix it over a few weekends!

Prob too busy playing with the buttons and watching TV to notice a jeep pulling up!

Bit of Tcut will sort that :shock:

 

If that was my missus she'd better be better at giving head than she is at driving

If that happened to my car - I'd be looking for a new girlfriend .. :lol:

 

I wonder if he's thinking about doing this - http://www.mrandmrswheatley.co.uk/heysucker.html

He got the estimate today - £8400 - bet it goes even higher - very painful

My mate did exactly the same as this in his Corrado. Drove into the back of a discovery and the tow bar wreaked havoc.

 

Didn't damage the bonnet but it smashed the bumper, couple of fog lights, number plate, grill. Gutted.

 

The driver of the driscovery apparently put on the breaks suddenly cos he wanted to have a look at the view (cornish countryside).
