Saw this on another forum recently and found it quite an interested read.

Here, you must post pics of cars you and your friends and family have wrecked/smashed.

Another reason for me making this thread is because my mate sold his car today. To the wreckers. For $150. The clutch blew in his 89 CSX Rolla. Car wasnt worth the $800 he was quoted to get it fixed so it got picked up today. I was at his house at the time and was able to take some photos (see below). Good news is he has been looking at Foz'z recently so that dream has gotten one step closer!

The only real crash i have had was in the Liberty.
What happened is here and here are some pics.









and the car that i ran into! Both have been fixed and are as good as new





Here is my mates car getting chucked away this afternoon.














And this is a family friends car a few months back that seems worth to share (again). Decen hit from an uninsured 20-something year old.

I will have to upload a couple of pics when i get to work, My mates VN SS was stolen then Burnt 500m's down the road and was driving with another mate (in the car behind him) he went round a corner, slid out, jumped over a kurb and went backwards into a fence, Pretty much every panel was fugged on the VU SS, 9 grand later, a full repsray, and 4 new wheels, its back on the road (if it used his insurance it would of been a write off)

The 'rolla looks too good to end its life in such a way. Pity some handy type person couldn't bring it back to life. Seems like a bit of a waste to me. Oh well. Such is life. Am I too emotional?

Yea, its a Prado. Happened a few months ago and he still hasnt got a replacement yet! He was waiting for the new model to come out. Should be soon

Uhh, I haven't wrecked a car...yet.

Lets keep it that way! Its not a good feeling

Am I too emotional?

Haha yes maybe a little! However, the Rolla was in terrible condition! paint was multicoloured poo-brown all over. Things were falling off it left right and centre. Plates had to be hot-glued on because they kept getting stolen! But we all loved it! I drove it a few weeks ago and noticed that the clutch felt like it was about to give. Then it did. Now its gone But the start of a new era; of the FOZ!

Some good pics there man! Would'nt've your mate in the VU been better off getting the car written off rather than paying the $9k? Plus the structural damage done to it??

That's what i thought, but it has had a bit of work done to it already,
and his old man (who's a boss on an oil rig) took it into a repair shop the next day and basically said "fix it"
He had to get lots of new suspension components etc. as well

Hi,

My JDM Forester + Eucalyptus tree.





Still hurts to look at these pictures.

Cheers,
Nik

Wow, Now that's a decent write off! Did you injure yourself? How many subies have you had Nik?

[skillionaire]

Hi, Slightly bent my nose, no blood though. Felt a bit sore in the morning, but was able to work. Subaru safety! I've only had three Subies. Four if you count the '78 - which I usually do! Cheers, Nik

[Morgan]

Wow! that is a good effort Nik! Whats the story behind it? Looks like it was a nice car...

[skillionaire]

Hi, It is still my favourite car ever. Still lust for one. 97 JDM Forester S/tb, fair bit of work done to it by Carizma in Melbourne, all slick. Hit a corner too hot at about a buck thirty, the old under-oversteer, back left hit a tree spiralling the car with massive force, I spun into hitting the second tree head on just left of centre. Airbag went off, I ran to town after trying to start it for a while... I was about 6K's from anywhere. Was interesting. Also had a passenger that was completely fine. Was not drink driving, just driving like a complete tool. Bought the B4, put the best tyres I could afford on it, and took the corner at the same speed. Had to do it once. Now I drive around that corner at about 40/50 and still grip up on the steering wheel. I often have flashed of the accident when I'm driving with other people and they take corners a bit wide or a bit jerky. Best driving education you can get. Cheers, Nik

Best driving education you can get.

Agreed, I look back now (same as my mates) and we used to drive like tools, Having the dent has taught me a lesson

[Morgan]

Glad you and your passenger were ok. I hate the intersection i had my crash on. I try and avoid it where i can. I dont blame you for having flashes of yours!

[RX25SE]

Nik, You're lucky, very lucky.

My efforts, rear suspension ripped out, exhaust system torn off the dump, 3/4 wheels snapped in half. Both rear C pillars dinted in, rear bar damaged, front just nicked the ground when it tumbled to the ground. This was after running out of talant at a corner and skidding for 100m up the road which ended in hitting a corner of an intersection, taking out a Steel gate, Give way sign, Telecom box and about 2m of fence, while spinning.

ooooh these look nasty, gotta get me a scanner at put up the pics of my previous ride
