Default New car time. :)

Hi everyone, a quick update from me.

After a fairly major accident in my CTR...





I decided i needed a new car.
Picked up this 2004 320d Touring on Friday and ive done 200miles since then, getting 48mpg, double what my CTR was giving me.





I got a diesel because it will hopefully have enough power/torque to pull a trailer+Track toy, this little accident has unfortunately set my plans for a track toy back a month or two.

Ouch! I guess you're OK given that you're driving again but that looks nasty. Putting your plans on hold for a while is far better than some other options even if it does feel frustrating. Take care.

BOOOOO!
Diseaseal

At least this car drives the correct wheels.

Dent in every panel though by the looks of it - congratulations. Although dented panels are the least of the problems with that.

Blimey, not much to salvage off that! Looks like a good practical estate you have there. It'll be a useful parts carrier for your track car.

Man points for the Roll.
As for the new motor it is obviously nice but a bit boring compared to your last.
I still hope you enjoy it though & hope to see a rolled pic of that an all, As long as you gtet out safe again of course.
