incident

Came out of the Cinema last night with the other half to find the car park had turned into a scene from Fast and the furious Tokyo Drift. Cars flying up and down and just a general car meet of young lads with around 50-60 cars.. Had about 5 cars trying to race me on the way home. Noticed a...

Hoping to solicit the advice of anyone of the great folks on here to an unpleasant collision on a station forecourt earlier today near Oxford. It was in my 05 C270. Short story is that I was driving through the forecourt (well, along the outside edge) when a chap in a Nissan Navara flung his...

Thankfully not my car (I just wouldn't let the situation happen in the first place). Serves him right I'd say. From the Full Fat Range Rover forum. LINK. Wonder who will pay. A mate of mine was at An Aldi yesterday day and a new range silver rover pulled in and parked at the doors...

Not sure what's happened here but there's a ton of Police at Brooklands today. No-one there is saying much but it looks as though they've been ram raided overnight. Quite a job to pull off in MBW, as anyone who's visited will know. I would imagine security there is generally pretty good. I...

Wife came back from shopping, Noticed driver's side wiper was off the screen. She thought someone had stolen or attempted to steal the wipers. Car had been parked in a leafy Surrey residential road. I took a look and found the wiper arm had been bent back. On closer inspection I saw there was a...

Set off for Leeds this morning decided to play safe and go round the M60 instead of going over the hills......unfortunately poor bugger in a van lost it in the snow and wiped out, at the cost of his life. My thoughts are for his poor family. Stuck for an 1 1/2 hours then allowed past, did the...

Was on my way to spoil a good walk by attempting to hit a small white ball around a field in Brighouse on Sunday at 7am (yes crazy i know:crazy:) all the signs on ganrty are lit up saying motorway closed due to incident. I curse and swear as I'm gonna be late, and take to the A roads, whilst...

Well there it is folks. After 25+ years of collision-free, points free and fairly stress free international motoring, because a person decided to pull a U-Turn (on a dual carriageway!!!) without signalling, after pulling out of a junction onto a main road, my car is in a Merc-Benz dealership...

The strangest thing happened last night while giving the wife's sister a lift home... I hit a large pothole in the road (completely unavoidable). As I did, I momentarily lost engine power and had a flash on the ABS light, it resumed to drive normally after the initial bump. I have checked in...

Mrs A was minding her own business on the A14 the other day, just waiting to pull out in the next lane as the one she was in was blocked by an incident where the police and paramedics were already in attendance. Some numptie whacked into her rear at great speed, she was whipped off the...

An emergency vehicle travelling south to north came across this set of traffic lights. The road approaching the lights was completely blocked by traffic, the driver of the emergency vehicle needed to make progress and the offside was clear with traffic stationary at the lights which were red...

This noon I was out in my CL500 that I have recently bought. The V5 I have sent off to DVLA to have it registered to myself from the former keeper and am waiting for it to be issued to myself. The car has only ever had one previous owner (who I bought it off). I was driving along as...

Not used the forum for a while, but this forum feels like an old friend and so its some friendly advice that I'm after. My sisters car (white Fiesta) was hit while parked in the local train station car park. Whom ever hit it drove off without leaving any details. The damage looks slight but...

more of an incident this one, travelling from Ashby on the 42 y/day when this great big ugly monster came up behind me, it was one of those HUMMERS the baby one that J Clarkson drove, the wheels were huge! nearly as big as lorry wheels, but of course these ones were chromed! it drove of into the...

With the impending laws on mobile phones in cars, I decided to get vodafone to install a hands free mobile phone kit in my car (W124) Not wanting a hole in the roof, I specifically ordered a bumper mounted antenna. When the guy arrived to install, he said that they had sent the wrong...
