				Looks like I need to get motivated and get my XR going as my daily is now dead..
Before

After

Now

Last night (friday) at about 630, I was driving along in medium traffic, other guy pulled out infront of me. I breaked and hit him (went on top of bonnet).
So lodge claim and got car towed away. My GF had to go to hostpital so spent a few hours there and was home by 11pm.
I doubt it will be fixed.

				At least you're okay. It's an extremely gay car anyway, so you should consider it a favour.

Gay because could it run you over you? 
This car could go anywhere. 
I was only getting rid of it to fund the XR project. Well it appears fate has decided for me.

Yeah few bruises, but all good. Fortunately the hight allowed me to go over the other car, so there was less force on us in the car.

Assuming it is a write off, I'd get more for them off the car than on, I still had the stockies to put back on.

				Be nice to see the XR out and about
more of a headache than anything else I knew the feeling last time I wrote my daily off
Never enough hours in the day is the biggest problem
Give us a hoy if you need a hand
