so long as you came out in once piece, that's what matters. cars can always be fixed, once you're in two pieces it's game over..

Thanks again. I had a pretty well used 2009 BMW 318d touring. It had 230 k km but a replacement motor that was fairly new. I doubt I'll get much cash out of it. I need it for driving to work though, I do 100km every day.

Glad you're ok Flo, sorry about your motor mate.

So Doug (the dog) barks and growls at anyone coming to the house. Which is a good thing really. However Ethan ( my 1 year old son) has now started standing at the window growling with him!!

Damn - I was hoping you crashed something really appalling… At least it wasn't a 325i I guess... 

[Max Power]

Haha, no. I spend most money on clothes and whisky.

Well, the car was a good deal as it got a replacement engine and was surely able to make it another 3-5 years. But it seems like it's a total damage according to the expert. So, I'm looking into new cars and might probably use my wedding money.
In the meantime I got at least some consolation by the insurance, now I hope for sunshine.

Glad you're OK @Max Power. In the meantime, here's some inspiration for your next car… 

[Max Power]

Thanks mate! It's not Inspiration that I lack, rather the funds.

[Graeme]

The Road Kill crew never have the funds either. That's the point of their videos.

@Max:

Had a car crash last night, involving two other cars. Not my fault and nobody's hurt, but I fear my car's damaged too much to be repaired. What a bummer, 4 weeks before holidays.

glad you're ok Max.

[Max Power]

Thanks mate!

Good luck @Chris!  We've got a trip to Balmorhea in August that I'm really looking forward to. It's amazing the difference in climate and landscape West Texas offers.
