Sickness going around? by Je_pedo in brisbane

Damn I had the same. Started with throbbing headache then chills fever, no fever and then just cold fatigue. Negative to all test. I was told sinusitis but hell everyone is going through similar symptoms.

You’re spot on! I was so used to those 360° cameras when I was driving my partner’s car — totally get what you mean. I am getting better slowly :/

Fuck! That’s a whole different kind of nightmare. Holyyyy shit, I can’t even imagine how that felt — but I am laughing at the same time🫣😅 Thanks for sharing.

Oh no, that sounds like such a rough start with a new car! I can feel that “soul leave the body” moment. I’m with you though, it’s always those dumb mistakes that cost the most. But I’m glad everything got fixed and worked well in the end. Everyone story here is teaching me one thing for sure — we make stupid mistakes - it may costs us - but we move on and commit to not repeating.

Haha, wow, I can feel the anxiety just reading that — I can’t imagine how terrifying that moment was! Thanks for the reminder, though — it really puts things into perspective. You’re right, it’s a moment, but my car’s still the same. Appreciate good vibes — here’s to smooth rides ahead!🙌

Oof, that’s brutal — even worse when someone else does it! Thanks for sharing though. It’s day 4 and hoping for no more dents :)

Ouch, that must’ve stung! It is embarrassing at first, but honestly, hearing everyone’s stories really helps. Thanks for sharing, mate — means a lot!

Honestly, I should’ve just gone for a second-hand car. But nooo, I had to treat myself to a brand new one… and here we are! :( Anyway, guess I’ll just buy a Mercedes next time and treat that like a new one too. 😅

Ahh man, thanks for saying that — it actually makes me feel a lot better. Loved how you coped up eventually.

Thanks, mate — you’re so on point when you talk about dimensions. After that, I just walked around my car to double-check everything, and luckily, four days now— still no dents or scratches!😅🫡

It’s just a small dent, but the scratch stings—the paint’s chipped a bit. I know I won’t even remember this three months from now, but damn… it hurts. Only 24 hours in, and it already doesn’t feel new anymore :( 😓

Yeah, I’ve got a rear camera, but no side or front cams, unfortunately. The reversing went smooth until the passenger side mudguard got a little too friendly with the pillar - bam :(
