bye bye micra

well folks, i just joined the forum about a fortnight ago, i got some good plans for the car and then i go and write it off, lol

i'll get proper pics tomorrow

i took a wide corner about 60mph and i felt the back slide out then it spun, mounted the kerb and hit a lampost and electrical box

rofl

Ouch! Sorry to see this mate

Another Micra taken from us too early

Hope you're ok though. That's the main thing in these situations.

James

well apart from the car, im fine, my brother was with me, hes a little shaken, but ok

thanks for asking

Good to hear. I know it might be a bit early, but any plans for the future? Another Micra or something else?

James.

im not sure mate, i'll need to see what the insurance pays out, then see whats around

ouch! were you on a national speed limit road? lol! something tells me no...

Mna - this has to be the year for death of the Micra, #### man we must of lost at least ten in Three months, and a few of the special ones!

sorry to here that mate. well at least your all ok. are you going to get another micra? you know you want to.

well grant, as much as i'd like to, i dunno, i'd need to see what the insurance pays out then see whats lying around

Sorry to hear about this, as much as it isn't a help since all these accidents I've been extra careful on road, it's so easy to crash, especially in this weather. Am glad again no one is hurt!

Best of luck with getting back on the road, micras are still the best about

ooo ooo ooo daytime pics and a pic of the scene, im pretty sure its a write off though lol

Messy

Glad you're ok tho! thats the main thing

Looks nasty!!! Not another one though. Glad you're ok though.

yeah tell me about it mate, thats new lights only 4 days ago, cv joints changed on saturday, new front tyres last weekend, new discs and pads about a fortnight ago and new wishbones in mid january :down:

thats defo a writeoff, look at my crash and mine was a write off...such a shame, i just hope your insurance will cover you because you where doing double the speed limit...

im guessing the police didnt get involved either if you still have a liscense?

Shame that, i hope u manage to claim wthout any prob's, even tho u were bein a little naughty with speed!!!. Glad your ok tho.

glad your ok mate, bit silly doing 60 in a 30 though

Unlucky mate. It is definately a write off though. Look at the back wheel. Gpt to agree with others though, it was stupid doing 60 in a 30. Your very lucky anyway.

my god, how many people keep crashin, this is gettin stupid now.

Whats the condition of your rear lights? I've been after a pair for a while

unfortuantley mate one of them got smashed, i added that pic earlier

This is getting daft now. We should have someone keeping a record of all the Micra write-off's on here over the past 3 months.....(a Micra R.I.P memorial thread perhaps lol).

Seriously though, glad you and your bro are ok. Thats the main thing.

No excuse for speeding like that, but the weather usually plays a part in crashes in the winter. This time of year is pretty treacherous. Saw a 200SX do a 180 on ice at a roundabout in front of me the other night

Y'all take care now!

how much do you want for your rear lights - i know they are broken.. but how much?

unlucky!

probs not the best idea to be admitting to doing 60 in a 30 on a forum the police could easily read!

:k11green:

well folks its been a fortnight, but i finally got me another micra :grinning: :grinning: :grinning:

picked up this 1998 k11 1.3 si from durham today for a grand, still not heard from the insurance about my old one but i keep annoying them every other day

60 on a 30 is bad m8 nice new car tho

hey joe boy, i just picked this one up today mate

yeah nice new car. Don't write this one off. You deserved it last time don't do it twice

Nice new car, lets hope you respect this one a lil more

nice car mate, whats the plans for it ?
