Was driving along minding my own business in Mansfield last week stopping at some traffic lights when the van behind deceided not to bother, we were only going about 10 mph although i was about stopped but the noise sounded like the back window had gone through, i pulled up and got out to see the bonnet crumpled on the van, no grill and the bumper not the right shape, had a look at the disco........there was just a crack in the bottom of the bumper and the tow light cover broken and a bit of a crease up the middle!
I think the moral to this to non Disco driver is give us plenty or room or you'll come off worse!
I been to the accident repair centre, they are replacing the bumper, cross member that runs behind the bumper and tow bar socket, not that i think its needed but they say they cant guarantee the strength and they claimed responsibility, so they can have the cost! Hopefully it will be sorted soon, but atleat i can drive it, unlike the van!!
