Wasn\'t planning this level of mods for my car but an unmarked burst water main had different ideas!

I\'m not happy. . .but at least I survived unharmed and didn\'t kill anyone!

Glad you\'re okay, I assume some council / water board is going to be hung, drawn and quartered.

Cheers fellas, I appreciate the concern,

Looks bad aye, doesn\'t help that the roof and door had to be cut off to get me out. . .it was all ready written off before that happened though!

Chris - you\'re damn right mate. . .got some photos to show at my Police interview tomorrow and hopefully some council / water board will be hung, drawn and quartered!

A water main had burst just before a roudabout but there were no signs warning about it.  It was in August and had been hot all day so the moisture will have brought oil and other residue to the surface.  As i accelerated over the roundabout and turned slightly the back end went. . .split second later I\'m kissing lampost, then wall!

It sucked. . .still does!
