Got a call from the wife saying she's had an accident.

Reversed into a Huge tree which was growing at 45% so missed bumper.

Looks like new door, spoiler, glass and external/internal trim.

She should have gone to Specsavers

Wow,, I would be filling for divorce now

Bad luck buddy, hopefully wont be too bad to put right..

Flippin' eck.

Quick, buy her a Corsa.

Trees wont be any safer with her in a Corsa

Yeh but if she can do that to your car, imagine the amount of carnage she can cause to a Corsa ;) (YAAY)

Blimey! Lucky she didn't bend the roof otherwise it would be a write off...

Outch mate!

I have sent you a private message mate!

I will help you were I can! I have experience removing and fitting the tailgate on the mk7 fiesta :)

Cheers!

Women :D

The exact reason as to why my other half wont go within 3 mile radius of mine..... unless shes going to sit in the passenger seat.

My wife doesn't dare drive mine because she knows how mad I'd be if anything happened haha!

tree 1 car 0 its a mess good luck with getting it fixed

Talk about making the guy feel better about it lol!

I'll have the rear boot handle off you mate ;)

The wife owes you much horizontal gratification. . .

I'd say that that amount of damage warrants several praying sessions . . .

Car got picked up today by repairers, courtesy car vauxhall adam :(. Nice interior but awfull steering, no feedback. Hope to get the Fiesta back sooner than later.

Is that the car adam or just some guy who gives you piggybacks?

Rather have a piggyback than drive that thing. Even her indoors complaining it has no omph, horrible steering but she does like the dash and touchscreen radio, bout the only good point going for it.

Got her back, took three weeks. Done a good job, no difference in colour and they painted the bumper as well although this wasn't damaged. They did fit a chrome boot handle but got that changed. Total bill was £2600.

3 weeks for a tailgate!! Jeezo!

Wow that a fair sum

How fast was she reversing! Aha

Glad you got it sorted though bud

Speed i'm not sure as she kept out of my way. But at least the dog was ok.

Every time she use's it now she gets reminded to watch out for trees.

Need a reversing warning that once selected just constantly says mind the tree. LOL

Was this a case of driving backwards whilst looking forwards do you think ?

Yep, sure was. She got distracted by a women waving to her trying to warn her of the tree. Women!
