Default A brother has fallen

Bad news for today

I was driving on Victoria Rd towards Parramatta, suddenly I saw two cars positioned accross the road. One was an S2000 (Silverstone, AZ#-###) and the other a Toyota of some sort (Corolla) - The ambulance and a few Police cars screamed towards the scene a few seconds later.

It looked like the S2K Tboned the Toyota, pretty bad damage on both cars, I was driving the other way, it was dark so I didn't get to see too much detail so I can't really judge who was at fault there...

.....hope that both parties involved are OK, to the S2K driver, hope you get to enjoy the S2000 once again buddy!! It's so sad to see a smashed up S - I got butterflies in my gut when I drove past the accident scene, I can only imagine how the driver felt.

Hey man,,, I was the owner of the silver s2k!!
The Corolla driver didn't see me while she was turning right across the Victoria rd, it was too late for me to brake when I saw her,,, :-(

Yea both parties were okay,, I just have to deal without the s2k for a while,,,,

Thanks for the kind words,, it really warms me up after the accident!!

Hey man,

Sorry to hear dude! Glad your OK though!

I hope that your S will be good as new and I hope that you don't have to wait too long to get her back on the road.


Bloody Toyota drivers

haha pech I don't know if that's a typo but it is empathise I think it'd be a tad harsh if we were emphatic about him being in pain but its a funny slip

Glad to hear it wasn't a 'young hoon racing crashes sports car' story.

Good to hear you are ok Gazzer and we'll have her back on the road in no time.

Yeah I was driving home and saw the accident as well...... It was dark so I couldnt really see the damage. Hope it is all ok.

Must be a bad week for us..... The roof of my garage fell on my car. The boot and rear bumper are farked...... Needs a new rear quarter and a whole rear end re-spray.

Who would think your car can get stuffed up while tucked safely away in the garage. There was an almighty bang/crash followed by my alarm going off..... I was like WTF?????

Anyway..... Anyone know any good panel beaters around the silverwater/parramatta area that I can go to for a quote?
