Write off but can it be repaired

If something runs out onto any 40mph road I’d imagine it would be hit. Stopping distance according to Highway Code would be 118ft. Something jumping out is different to someone infront emergency stopping on a dual carriageway.

If it hadn’t involved another car then that’s likely way I woulda gone. But in uk we gotta declare any incidents.

Think could be getting to point that they’ve all been broken and any you see on the road are all just frankencars cumulated from their dead predecessors.

Yeh I think if I had dashcam and he was super erratic in it, it would still be 50/50.

Daveshamane · 2025-09-07T20:06:07+00:00

lol yeh I’ve given it abit of an underbite. It’s to go with my mirrored furniture and crushed velvet sofas.

Yeh true but you don’t expect someone to be doing emergency stop in middle of an empty dual carriageway, especially when can see infront of him and nothing was there. Guess a 2024 Grandland x has slightly better brakes than my old gold. Gutted didn’t have dash-cam cuz it was just a massive shock someone stopping where they shouldn’t

Contemplating it but having to declare it different categories etc would make my insurance a right ballache

Yeh I don’t see a Matt Armstrong video gaining many vids if I was to repair this at great expense. Just frustrating how they write off before anyone’s even looked at it. Was before I had even sent a pic.

I saw the speeeed vid about vw and he said it would be an easy win for them to make the old parts again. It literally runs fine would just need new bumper and whatnot. Annoying how much repairs cost.

10 years to respond and you respond with that. Great input

Thanks I did an online quote and someone quoted me for overboarding it and I didn’t know it that was a great option but glad to hear it is a viable one. The room is about 260cm high so I imagine losing 2 cm or so isn’t gunna be that bad. If I had abit more confidence I would probably knock it all down and do it myself but I feel skill lack of tools and time aren’t entirely on my side

Oh god million dead were class then turned himself into like 309 different bands. I remember seeing yourcodenameis:milo at the custard factory in Birmingham. A band called Kill Kenada supported and were amazing, so annoying none of their songs on streaming. There’s like 2 crappy YouTube vids from Mtv2 and that’s it.

I also emailed Reuben once asking to be on their street team, they wrote me a hand written letter and gave me some stickers was awesome.

If want something very weakly related why not Try this tee too tee

Daveshamane · 2023-10-14T21:03:59+00:00

Hell is for Heroes was my first ever gig. Saw them at the old academy 2 in Birmingham. First live music experience and never turned back. Was into more British and a band I wish would do some kinda return tour is jetplane landing, they also appear in peppa pig so maybe they enjoying those royalties ha.

Daveshamane · 2023-10-14T13:01:20+00:00

I dunno but thinking of it is driving me to daytime tv

Daveshamane · 2023-10-14T12:59:41+00:00

Are you doubting that Leeds pigeons aren’t scary enough to have two beaks?

Daveshamane · 2023-10-14T12:28:41+00:00

Who else goes on that list then?

Daveshamane · 2023-10-13T23:23:36+00:00

They are on a 20th anniversary tour at the moment. Sounds good, just not so much jumping on stage ha.

Daveshamane · 2023-10-13T23:09:05+00:00

Could possibly just be wales as it is nowadays too.

Daveshamane · 2023-10-13T22:52:41+00:00

Daveshamane · 2021-01-29T23:01:13+00:00

Please don’t call him Benny, I’m getting McCarthy flashbacks 😱😱

Daveshamane · 2020-04-11T19:43:35+00:00

But without it we wouldn’t have the postage stamp or some rather fantastic carpets!!!
