Posts: 1,376 Thanks: 69 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | re: Out with the old, in with the new (my punto mk2a progress thread) 52 plate ford focus estate. wich only had lil bumper damage on the front and the front wheel pushed back a little. the guy was workin in a wearhouse and come out mouthing off sayin i was drivin iraticly (witch even if i was he wouldnt have seen as he was inside). tryed gettin me locked up when the police arrived, saying alsorts. but he also had to travel back to liverpool wich is probly why he tryed getting his own back. but im hoping he aint insured as when we swoped details his writing was horrible and he didnt write down who hes insured with. but thats just wishfull thinking.

(look i'll be honest i had a near miss when i first passed so am not holier than thou) get yourself booked on a skid pan day..... |
