The car is in for repair so can't get pics.

Might be best to keep your pics to yourself before and after if you didn't report damage to street furniture. :wink:

Ah no :(
Unlucky mate, could happen to any of us, just glad no one else was involved and you were ok!
Bet you're looking forward to getting her back...

I reported damage.

All there was was a scuff on the central reservation, and chipped curb and some tyre marks on the grass.

Updated (fixed) pics coming on sunday hopefully as i should get the car back either today or tomorrow...:)

Forgot to say.

Went to see the car yesterday as it's only a mile away from one of my work places.

It's just waiting rear trailing arm bush now.

All that was damaged was the trailing arm and bumper, also the wheel has been fixed and refurbed, which is a bonus as that wheel had a few scuff marks on it...:)

Can't wait to get it back now.
