 Black Ice !! - BobbyG
Well the missus went to work in her wee Beetle this morning, very icy but took it carefully and parked up at work.

Delivery driver in his 7.5 tonner came into car park slowly, hit the black ice and lorry slid down the hill, collected Benji in its path and promptly bumped Benji up a kerb, half way over a small dwarf wall and then wedged into a lampost.

So spent all morning on phone to Admiral and then to Albany assist and now got HelpHire involved as well. Have you ever tried reading a pdf of a hire agreement on a smart phone???

Pretty sure car will be a write off, as well as the body damage, god knows whats happened underneath.

Now looking at the resultant mess, it is obvious to me that as she had her all-seasons tyres on the front, they had definitely provided more grip.................. LOL
