What happened? Glad you're fine though.

Post 376.

 

[Davidoff46]

damn...

you are ok this is the important..

 

[TheR]

This will be most likely the end of the Panda.
I think it will be declared "Technical Totalled".

Btw, i'm more or less fine.

Where the airbags out?Looks like it in the picture. If so I'm sure it will be a total loss.
Glad you're oké.

Yep, both airbags deployed. (steering wheel and Dashboard passenger side)

Yep, both airbags went off. (steering wheel and Dashboard passenger side)

Damn! Must have been quite an impact then.

Yep, in hospital after the thorax x-rays they thought i had a cracked or broken 6th vertebrae, then i got a CT Scan and that cleared me of any doubts, nothing cracked, noting broken.

And now your completely pain free I hope(allthough looking at the car I doubt it)?

The magic word is "Oxycodon" for two days, now 1000Mg paracetamol every 6 hours.

 

[TheR]

Well, that doesn't sound to bad if the Paracetamol works.

 

[The Pretender]

Aftermath.

You're not seriously hurt. That's ALL that matters really.

Will you get another Panda!?

If it isn't too late take the engine cover off...remember the newer pandas have the boring plain black covers ?

I know it's very soon (and I hope, therefore, not too insensitive to ask) but any idea what spec you would go for on your replacement? Identical to your last one or something completely different?

 

[AndyCalling]

My guess? 4x4 for the next one. ?

Not identical in the sense of colour but certainly a used "Lounge" again and if possible more options then this one. (winter pack + ACC)
Not buying a new one, because this was not planned, to replace the Panda at this point.
So will use the insurance money to buy something else.

Good choice! I've got the winter/climate pack on mine and it's been a boon in this cold weather. I like the turbo defrost button [emoji106]
