Bad luck mate. I hope your insurance company comes good.

I crashed my Porka last year, but now she's better than ever.

Last sunday an old bloke in a red rover pulled out on me and i slid past his front bumper, braking my indicator, scratching my bumper and wheel.
Then yesterday i went and stuck the flash threw a stone wall.
My fault, pushed the wrong peddle, rubbish tyres, slippery road ect;

Thats not a crash. More of a minor scrape. Don't qualify as a crash unless you crease the roof :!: Bar the bumper your front end looks mint.

Yeah, check this out....

....A mechanic, who was returning the car after servicing, smashed it through lift doors, sending the sports car crashing two floors down the shaft, reported the South China Morning Post. The car came to rest on top of the lift on the first floor.

Firemen rescued the 43-year-old mechanic from the blue 911 Carrera 4S and he was taken to hospital. The accident happened at the Jebsen Porsche Centre Hong Kong on Cheung Sha Wan Road at 1.45pm.

’We believe the accident was caused by negligence. The driver stepped on the accelerator instead of the brake,’ a police source said.

Now that's the way to crash a Porsche.
:shock: :blackeye:

Ive now collected all the parts to repair the "white flash" to its former glory :D
The bumper has had the washer jets removed and the centre bumper bar/grill removed and smoothed. Will be painted tommorow.
So i removed the smashed bumper today.
Allso took out the main wash bottle, and re-routed the wires to use the smaller wash bottle.
