Hi everyone,

in short I am after a centre cap for a marea alloy


in full if you want to read it here goes....

Went shopping in the sales with the missus, after 4 hours we decided to call it a day and drive home. As we pulled out a BMW 1 series almost sliced my front end off zooming around a roundabout. Then we saw this driver cutting in and out of traffic in the wrong lane at roundabouts and generally driving like a t**t.
Going down a country lane and he is trying to overtake a van on blind bends then takes a roundabout the wrong way.

About 2 miles later the traffic has held him up and I end up behind him. without warning he turns off almost with me up his arse so being myself I beeped him and carried on my merry way (bloody bmw drivers being mumbled)
1min later hes up my arse flashing his lights.
I decided to ignore him and carry on at 30mph.
pulled out onto the main road and then onto a dual carrigeway, with this he pulls alongs side me and himself and his bright orange girlfriend are shouting abuse through the window.

We arrive at a roundabout on the dual carrigeway and he pulls in front of me, across both lanes, and jams his brakes on, then gets out of his car and comes towards myself.
I thought 'f**k this' turned the wheel to the left and went round him.
As the snow had melted the road was slippery and I wheelspun, bouncing into the kerb and then back towards his brand new 1 series.
as my wing hit his rear quarter panel I had a thought of 'oh crap, too late now' and slid all the way down the side of his car ripping his mirror off and crushing all 3 panels on the side of his car.

I then went across the roundabout and pulled over and rang the police.

The nutter then tried coming at me again but myself and the missus just locked the doors and waited for the police.

Unfortunatly I had a slight wrinkle in my wing and lost my centre cap :(

Oh well, insurance has said that technicially I hit him, so my insurance will pay out and no claims dropped by 2 yrs. Luckly I don't think mine is bad enough to claim so no excess lost.

Technically the insurance are right, but due to the poor nature of his driving and the abuse he was giving and damn right stupid and dangerous driving antics and the fact the police are involved could actually result in him being at fault as you could say you didn't know what the mad man was gonna do you were just trying to get away from him, if he hadn't of pulled across you then the accident wouldn't of happened at the end of teh day, what is wrong with these peeps, anyway there is a brand new one on ebay for £12 but can't get on there at the moment, but if i get any new wheels soon you can have one of mine.

sorry to hear about this dude, that is shocking behavour but at least his new pride and joy will not be original anymore!
