Clipped my wing mirror today..

[Nostrum]

A bit of a shock when I got showered in glass. The actual mirror ended up in the van!

Ouch that's an expensive mirror to fix.

You must have been travelling at some speed mate? Expensive bit of glass ay?

 

[gassafe]

Is that a new transit?

 

[SimonG]

Holy crap, thats a job and half.

 

[Nostrum]

New traffic and was going about 25-30mph.

It's along a road that people tend to drive in the middle of even though there's enough space for two. I pulled across a bit to much because of some ****wit and next thing I know it was like a bomb went off!

About £300 to sort it by the time I pay the excess on the glass replacement.

Not a great day really.

What's the new Traffic like?

 

[Nostrum]

A bit drafty now.. :thumbs_down:

scrap..

It all seems O.K, no faults so far, had it for about 10 months. Nice to drive, not as economical as I was hoping for but I think it's getting better the more miles I do.

I chose it over a transit custom as it had everything I wanted but with a bit more space than the custom, coming from a MWB semi high transit.

I'm also not keen on the dashboards in the fords, a bit fiesta like and could look quite tatty over time.

Haha 25-30 my arse!! I used that same line when I was 17 and wrote off 6 parked cars in a crash. "I swear dad I was doing like 25-30...."
