That Mondeo looks relatively unscathed compared to the one that hit my old D1 rear offside whilst it was parked at side of our street. Apparently, if sun is in your eyes and you can't see anything, accelerating is the thing to do. Well, at least that's what the old chap in the Mondeo seemed to have done.

D1 quarter panel pulled straight but the boot floor split Sad

Looking at these photos, they appear to ripple the rear 1/4 panel in exactly the same place. It must be a crumple zone.


Yes, I noticed that, I thought it was a dent at the time, but looking at Lrstaylor's image it looks exactly the same.
It took LR 6 weeks to supply a new rear 1/4 panel.

So car was dropped off yesterday with regards to the bump.

Been given a tiguan as a courtesy car.. Just hope it will tow the tintent as its a hell of a lot smaller than the disco....

Can't wait to get the old girl back and its only been 12 hours.
