gutted, there isnt that much damage really - slid on a round about,smacked the kerb bounced off the railin and the back hit it
the front passenger side wheel is vertical --- or it may be horizontal - its the way it shouldnt be so i hope it wont cost that much to get fixed:( will need a new wing and some touch up with the paint job

Oooh, nasty mate.

What roundabout did that happen at?

sounds like what i once managed to do to my Mondeo, i hit a kerb after understeering badly, a knob in a Clio tried to overtake me and me with a 1.8 16v wasnt going to let it happen, but knowing my luck, it was really wet and gritty so car went into kerb at about 50/60mph. The damage was mainly to the suspension on the wheel side and wheel was broke, in the end repairs were about 400 quid i think (cash in hand). Feel sorry for you mate, car never drove same since after the repair. I hope your car gets better and you're on the road soon, not driving is the worst pain ever.

happenedat the roundabout at the showcase cinema in linwood, about fifthteenmins after i done it an escort came round lost control and smashed the front of his, then another car slid but managed to get control of it - but im gutted

Could have been diesel or somethin on the road then going by what you said.

Very wet out there today, lot of water lying aswell.

I came home from Glasgow this afternoon and you could hardly see through the rain it was so heavy, then it was hailstones as wel. l

well if it makes you feel any better Arsenal have lost the Champions League and have no trophies..

sorry to hear about it mate. i remember my first polo. written off sitting a block of metal now! wat brilliant car it was. it was 3 yrs old and only had 6k on the clock. had been garaged for 2 yrs!!! wat a brilliant car! you've upset me now!!

Could've been worse!!
i rolled my peugeot 205(first car!) got hit by a truck trying to under cut me on a roundabout-got out of the car without a scratch, but my mate broke his leg in two places!
Good luck in fixing yours, maybe you should try those injury claim lawyers coz of the diesel spill-someone probably will be accountable for the state of the road especially if another car came along and hit the kerb as well!
