My Xantia after been hit by an Audi

Post by Christian S »

Now it will be scraped. :( I found the tow bar half a meter under the car. The boot lid can't be opened nor the left backdoor :(

I was hit at a stop light by a car with five zeros.. four in the front and one behind the steering wheel :D

These fools are everywhere. I have a good idea of how you might be feeling about the wreck.

well, German premium cars are king of the roads you know. They own the road. If you keep the speed limit, the German premium car owners are chewing on the steering wheel.. hehe... I'm ok! I was sent to hospital by ambulance right after the accident to check my neck and back. My neck is OK. No whiplash injury but the muscles in my back got stretched out very fast, so I have got ache in my back for a week or two but I'm getting better. I was sent home later the same day after being examined at the hospital. But I miss my car. :( It had many more km left.

Premium brand German car drivers tend to fall into two groups:-
BMW- Bad Mannered W*****s
Audi- Also Unbelievably Dire Individuals

I'm working on one for Mercedes drivers but I can't get past Moronic at the moment.
Any suggestions?

I would also like to remove my cousin Robert from the Audi description. He drives an Audi TT 3.2 RS, and he knows how to drive it well, and properly.

As I speak german, we call BMW for "Baader Meinhof Wagen" :rofl2: or just "Bring Me Workshop"

I have learnt it's never a good combination to mix french and german cars. There will always be problems. One at time works fine but never together.

Herre gud! She looks brilliant :) I'm sorry for your car.
I would have been very sad but thinking positive you are safe and sound after the accident 8-)

I guess you'll next enter the wonderful world of "CAN bus - BSI and Bumper Off" (I mean C5) :mrgreen:
