I believe I do. I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Haha, I've never heard of anyone getting an MX5 as a hire car before

At least they gave you something RWD, even if it is a rank colour. Think I prefer the white MR2 behind it though - best colour IMO

It's cos I went through helphire to get a like for like replacement. This is the closest they could get. shame as I was hoping for an Elise or a Boxster or something.

I quite like the colour. It's really metallic. Of course Sakura is better though

She's sniffing Max's bum in that pic and thinking 'what the hell are you? And where's Mister Five?'

I did the same and somehow ended up with a manual diesel Alfa Romeo Spider which I don't really think is a like for like replacement for a DSG petrol Golf R32. The Alfa was a pile of crap too, but that's another story.

that looks awful! Well done to Phil for anticipating the smack and acting accordingly. Tho if you sped up, would you have missed the fiesta?

vix · 27-05-2009, 08:47

I don't think so. I think the Fiesta did that awful thing where they realise they have pulled out on you so they just stop :/ Although to be honest i can't quite remember. In my flashbacks this Fiesta is two lanes long

awww

Seems like the insurance companies are being good to you at the moment. When we were rear ended a coupla years ago, even though it wasnt our fault, the companies got difficult with us...
Seems like you know what you want / what is best though!

Nasty smash, could have been a lot worse and I'm glad you're otherwise ok. I was gonna say, looked like you shaved a lot of speed off from dual carriageway speeds, so good work.
