AndrewL Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Nice to see that the Fez can stand up well to these kind of accidents - there's no intrusion into the passenger cell in any of those photos. Saying that, if there was there's probably no point selling them and they wouldn't be on eBay! As for the couple who jumped out of the car, what was the thought process during that escapade? I'm amazed that they were both as stupid as each other and agreed it was a good idea in the first place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harweyko Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 There was meant a special 20pcs edition of white SportX (Zetec S TiVCT + Eibachs + Lether + ... everything) with discount of 3300€. One of them was damaged after driving 500 metres (0,3 miles) when leaving the dealer, there was nothing left from the car... So we now have special edition of 19 pcs :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 If my brand new car was ruined within minutes of picking it up i'd be devastated!!! One benefit with a MK4, any damage doesn't really matter too much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bILLOO Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Ouch! You're right Michael. I didn't care too much for the mark6.5 but if anything touches the mk.7 then they get their hands chopped off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maffoo Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 If my brand new car was ruined within minutes of picking it up i'd be devastated!!! One benefit with a MK4, any damage doesn't really matter too much! I'm going to touch so much wood that nothing happens when I go to pick mine up! Less than a month to go :D Just waiting to hear from the dealer :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maffoo Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I kinda wish I'd have just bought nearly new... But it's nice to know that I've had a car made JUST for me :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irononreverse Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 They all seem to be Styles/Style+'s. Bit worrying there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sussex Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 wow, unfortunately these look like shunts and scrapes compared with my poor, poor MK7, having driven over 20 miles on a journey, with no problems at all, a patch of ice on a national speed limit road did for her :( (the roof was cut off and in this pictures it is "back to front" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maffoo Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Wow sussex! I remember when you told us about your crash, didn't imagine it would lookg that bad! How are you now anyway? On the mend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bashful Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 As Maffoo said I never imagined it to be that bad either. You were so so lucky to get out that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sussex Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I know, it is only on reflection that it all sinks in, VERY lucky indeed. I broke both my arms but apart from that (!) nothing else wrong. I have been signed off work from end of Jan to mid April, sounds great, but its very boring and frustrating, however the pain is not bad and I am only a month away from getting back to work and the use of my arms has increased a lot. Its a long haul but I'm getting there! B) P.S Really miss driving, and the MK7! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
