Will this polish out?

Oxygen Thief · 03-10-2014, 12:13 PM

Well my day sucks, does this look terminal to you guys?

BMWChap · 03-10-2014, 12:17 PM

Fook! Hope your all ok!, what happened ?..details

bmwspeed01 · 03-10-2014, 12:17 PM

shit

Oxygen Thief · 03-10-2014, 12:20 PM

This tiny little fella hit me doing about 40. Good news is no one was injured.

bmwspeed01 · 03-10-2014, 12:23 PM

This is a worry for me because my two dogs are frequently in the boot. I'm glad no one was hurt though!

Reece · 03-10-2014, 12:33 PM

Whiplash all day long that, car dont look great, glad everyone is ok though, i would personally have a claim on whiplash if you have a good gp you will get it done without missing work, it will give you the money to source another and whatever mods you may have done

ndj · 03-10-2014, 12:38 PM

Ouch! Glad you're alright.

I was going to ask how your boot floor looked but seeing the crumpled OSR wing, on top of the rest of the damage, I think you're looking at a write-off unfortunately.

Frobius · 03-10-2014, 12:39 PM

I just saw you post this on facebook - well, technically your other half. Didn't know you were on here!

Glad the dugs weren't in the car. Are you going to just get it fixed / get another?

Yeah, she managed to scare my parents with the pictures before I told them about it.

Thankfully the dogs were staying at home and tearing the house apart today.
I doubt it'll be repairable to be honest, I'll find out on Wed hopefully but, it's a good excuse to buy something completely impractical and ridiculous.

I couldn't even get to the boot floor! Safe to say that I didn't manage to get either of the dog blankets out.

Frobius · 03-10-2014, 12:53 PM

Like a 550i touring!

I have been hankering after a 5 for a while now. I should drive near more trucks!

you will have very bad whiplash tommorow. get to your gp quick..

Frobius · 03-10-2014, 01:00 PM

Without going off on a tangent, all the people on here that seem to be advocating making up a whiplash claim to prof from it; isn't it interesting how they are the same people that whinge that people are scamming insurance companies and forcing premiums up?!

If someone is genuinely injured, fine. I had bloody ambulance chasers calling me up for about six months after someone smashed into the back of my car, offering me 'substantial compensation for the no doubt severe whiplash I had sustained'.

My car was parked in the street and I was still in my pit when it happened. Some companies still reckoned they could get me cash!! Fucking unscrupulous if you ask me!

Kerr · 03-10-2014, 01:03 PM

Very fortunate and unlucky at the same time. That could have been very serious.

Thanks, and you're right. In all honesty yes I am in a fair bit of muscular pain but, I have felt a lot worse after a friendly game of rugby.

Bloody-hell-fire!

Josh1a1h · 03-10-2014, 01:48 PM

Bloody hell! That looks terrible! Glad you are ok and the dogs were at home!!!

acerboo · 03-10-2014, 02:06 PM

half gallon T cut and 4 coats of a good wax be right as rain! sympathy with you.

chedixon · 03-10-2014, 02:51 PM

Hope you're ok, ouch!
Judging by the damage to mine and they wrote it off I'd say that was pretty terminal unfortunately.

well said that man

Russbmw · 03-10-2014, 03:53 PM

^

I second that.

A bit of a shame it had to be spelled out though.

OP, sorry about your car dude. At least you're ok. That'll be a write off IMO, doesn't take much to write a car off these days unfortunately.
