Hope your ok buddy

What happened?

Unlucky fella :(

Did the crash break your arms?

Hope your alright buddy

OMG - that's terrible news, hope you're ok

Oh nooo :( Sad news. Least you are (semi) ok though...!?

hope you feel better soon, ouch

Sorry to hear about this, hope you have a speedy recovery. :)

This isn't good. What the hell happened?

Well, how insensitive are we? The bloke claims to have two broken arms and we are asking him a series of questions when he is clearly struggling to type !! :lol:

Hope you get better mate ...

Yep, hope you get better soon mate. Glad the financial side of it doesn't look too painful (i.e. the GAP stuff).

Must've been a good one to write a practically brand new car off though!

I know this site doesn't have one, but on a bike site I use they have a spill/crash counter. Basically you post in if you have an accident and you're supposed to also do a MS Paint diagram to show the crash (the funny paint diagrams add some light to the situation). Perhaps you could start one here?

Tin and metal can always be replaced. Hope you recover soon.

Never good to hear this.

Get better soon mate :)

Euro NCAP dont seem to test the car for arm damage, but they rate highly for mainly everything. Maybe they should test arms too......

Sorry but I have to ask. If you have both of your arms broken, can you wipe it on your own?

Get well soon buddy :)

Sorry but I have to ask. If you have both of your arms broken, can you wipe it on your own?

Hope you're better soon Sussex

Big ouch! Get well soon mate.

Have you got your order in for a new Fiesta yet? Sooner the better if you want another one as the wait is massive as we know.

think i will look at used MK7's, say 5-15k miles on the clock, quicker and cheaper than new!
