Anyone on here?

Unfortunate combination of run flats, an incline and a bit of snow

Nice car too.

You took a pic of some ones car on their driveway?! Where is this

Captain Chaos · 01-09-2011, 03:45 AM

How are runflats a contributory factor??

Quite an impressive way to stop though - saves on brake wear!

Fail

Captain Chaos · 01-09-2011, 03:53 AM

I keep looking at that pic - I love the spade being left up against the wall... It's like the owner's got it out, looked at the situation, and said "You know what....fuck it" and gone inside for a cuppa.

Exactly my thoughts! Or just Ironic that he decided not to bother his arse to shift the snow and ice when he left home, came back and used the garage as an emegency brake! PMSL...poor guy though, I would just punch myself for such a massive fail.

I had an ex neighbour who did that several times without the aid of snow.

Somehow the incompetent waste of skin never took the hint that he was driving far to fast for a cul-de-sac.

Mine did that last winter though the garage door was open and certainly the summer tyres did not help. I actually went in to get a shovel and came back to find the car half in the garage. looking at the damage though it must have been inability to stop rather than a passive slide down the slope. Fail all the same!

Looking at the way the door has just given, I am guessing the worse the owner is looking at is a few scratches.

SteveF1 · 01-09-2011, 09:21 AM

Shit!

I imagine it'll need a full front end respray as I bet the broken garage door has gouged scratches all along the bumper and bonnet.

Very unlucky
