Event The 205 is dead, LYVE COLLECSHUN FRED - FAIL TO PROCEED

[Arthur Foxhake]

My 205 is within your price range bud.

A lot of hard work has gone into it but I don't charge garage prices for labour and all the go faster bits cost me peanuts.

 

You won't be stealing it. Buy it post haste. Then I can get on with abusing Dugong's ZX estate.

It can be put back to standard if you prefer and I'll keep the crazy turbo for something else.

[explosive-cabbage]

Thanks for teh effort and support guys.

Unfortunately I really need somthing over 20 years old, it is a requirement of my insurance. Thanks anyway!

[warren t claim]

Genuinely impressed at the fact that you're still alive after bending more metal than Uri Geller.

 

Can you not get another cheap 205 and keep your old one for spare oily bits?

It's hard to find a car with all of your requirements, this meets most of them though.

Echo all the earlier sentiments of glad you're ok / WOW!

 

Now, in future, if you see a cone in the middle of the road and think it's a prank. GOAL! Get Out And Look. If it is a prank, you can save the next person the effort of driving round it by moving it to the side or you can see A BIG FUCK OFF TREE ahead!

 

(or just duck)

 

Now, can every stop writing-off quality chod please.

[holbeck]

Will, glad you're OK m8.

 

If I can help in any way, shout!

[sporty-shite]

Don't suppose you want to bail me out with the ruffgeezer ZX do you? If you want to pick it up and use it, then give me what you get for it when you sell/raffle etc.

[Agaboo]

Shitting Nora!

[Noel Tidybeard]

i'd put a claim against the council- my mate got paid out when drainage ditch was blocked causing water to flow across the road which then was frozen by OMGWINTER putting him in the other ditch when he skidded

 

one PARKING RESTRICTION cone would not suggest a road closure to anyone shirley?

[MrDuke]

As said by everyone else, really glad that you walked away from that relatively unscathed, those pictures do look horrific. And best of luck with finding something equally awesome to replace it with  .

 

However, I'm going to make myself unpopular here and suggest that you were a MASSIVE TWAT for continuing to drive after your screen had iced over, however short the distance was. I agree that the single cone was woefully insufficient as warning, but I suspect that if your vision was unimpeded, you would have at least been able to brake early enough to avoid any roof/tree action. I know it's easy to criticize in hindsight, and by all means tell me to f**k off, but being on a quiet back-road, there was no excuse for not stopping to clear the screen when it froze.

 

**dons helmet**

[Junkman]

Holy shitteritis!

Being alivage almost a wonder.

[Ghosty]

WTactualF? Bloody lucky to get out of that.

 

One cone is in no way acceptable to stop you from driving into a BFO tree.

 

(I thought a portapower was a MIG welder?)

[KruJoe]

MUST TRY HARDER.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You're getting quite good at this now.

 

 

 

 

I might have a 170bhp 205 vnt TD lined up though!

Yeah, that's just what you need. As the Poo-Oh-Fives get faster, the crashes get better*.

[skattrd]

... I might have a 170bhp 205 vnt TD lined up though!

 

If you do get this, can I get dibs when you flog it to go travelling

[KruJoe]

So are you using the Chez_Kru_Joe family back-up RAV4 now?

 

Or do you want to insure the Pleasure Wagon for a bit and use that, while you get one of the Ladas ready for the road?

[JohnK]

You fancy trying the soft top version of the pleasure wagon on your return ?!

[scruff]

I thought of this thread when heavily preggers Mrs Spud left for work this morning - made her take the Range Rover which has a heated screen...

 

Glad you are OK, lucky bastard

[tommotech]

Glad you got out of the 205 in one piece and are able to tell the tale. In typical British fashion the horror and shock of the incident quickly turns to light humour.

Hope you find a replacement soon, stay lucky fella.
