Blimey K, that's bad luck - hope the pug driver was insured.
Had similar happen to me a while ago - some little chav in his mums shopping trolley - foot down - brake hard - foot down - brake hard - showing off to his mates in the car.. didn't brake hard enough. Luckily no damage.

When I read the topic title I thought Simon had paid you a visit

Seriously though I hope you get it sorted and you are all OK.

They are silver bulbs - the hazards were on.
It was a 96 Pug 306. I ended having to push it off the road afterwards as it wouldn't start.

Bad luck, KB.

On the bright side, at least they didn't damage the splitter!

What hit you?  And when are you going to get silver indicator bulbs?

My neck is actually sore but it was a bit sore before then as it usually is when I don't sleep right. I'm not sure if it is more sore now or not.

Heading off to the garden centre with the young fella today. Trying to merge onto the nearby dual carriageway (which has roadworks and requires traffic to stop), I stopped and the car behind me didn't!


One of my recently refurbed rims visible also!




I opened the boot after I took the pics. It won't close - duck tape holding it down currently.
I feel gutted.
I just want to cry!
