Bye bye Z

Post by benslick »

My brother crashed my Z1 :head: Rather someone drove into him while he was driving it. Then the very next day someone reversed into it while it was parked! Ahhh.. What to do next?

:( Gutted for you m8, hope it's not too bad and just as you got it all mint :shake:

Not to worry m8, just think of all those new parts their insurance company is going to have to fork out for!

Commiserations from one who knows!

Brighton does seem a very dangerous place for cars - can they all just not drive down there?

Sheesh, not again. You crash them, Ivor saves them, is it a writeoff when you say `bye bye`?

Sorry to hear this mate! Is the car a total writeoff?

Are you going to repair the Z? I will give you a ring this week.

Not again ... you must have the only Z1 with more new parts than Triggers Broom.

Sorry, it was meant as a joke - as everyone seems to use it for target practice.

Hope it is soon fixed, Ben.

I was thinking the other day that Interlagos Blue, which is the colour of my M5, might look good on a Z1.

Have to agree, I think that would work too. Having said that, I really liked the Chilli Red :D
