As promised created new thread from this one driver education
This is the result of my accident at 90+ barrel roll.
did not put the 18s on the day before as it was raining, they now sit on my new scoob.(classic shape registered in december 2001).
bought another one because the police said not many cars can stand up to that sort of accident. ie the car saved my life.

managed to salvage the scoobysport downipipe, magnex centre and scoobysport backbox and blitz induction kit, before insurance took it away.
these now sit on new scoob. all i had to do was bend one of the hanging brackets on the back box to make it strait. bloody good build quality.

Holly balloni!
I knew it was going to be bad after your description in the other thread!
Do I repost my pictures... hmmmmmm......
Why not :
I also bought another Scooby as I was told similar and also believe that the car saved my life.
My air bag went off due to the front impact.... as you didn;t hit the front I would guess this is why the air bag did not go off as it was not needed.

no the dog was not in the car, but the dog guard acted as some sort of roll cage for the rear of the car. it was pretty well jammed in between roof and top of suspension struts though.

Came back to mine and thought that the front bumper had been nicked. As I got closer, I saw that it had been on fire. Written off completely.
New one is much better though!!

Turboteeth,
Steven has said
"!!!Please think before you overtake!!! as i wouldnt want this to happen to anyone else out there"
so why warrent
"SLOW DOWN & LEARN TO DRIVE YOU TOSSERS!!!"
perhaps you should save that for people who do 70 in cars that shouldn't do 40 , people with bold tyres, drunk drivers etc,
Are you saying that you have never done 90 !
Do you think It is fair to blame this "lot" for the reason you are paying £1,800 a year on insurance otherwise I would by paying the same instead of £500. There must be lots of other factors !
Chill m8
Steve,
Good to here that you are ok and the course was useful. I took to an advanced driving assessment to get cheaper insurance and it is an eye opener, especially when you see people going a lot slower but who are a worse danger but they are just not aware, just like the lorry driver.

cheers m8.
turboteeth,
i think if your paying 1800 to insure your scoob, then there are other factors involved. eg age, no claims discount, where you live etc etc etc. the list goes on. for christ sake dont just blame it on somebody else. me thinks you are hiding something re your premium.

turbo teeth u obviously drive like a **** to pay that much insurance anyway so how dare you lecture others. Im 21 and pay less than that on a modded scooby so u must have stacked it or have a lot of ink on your licence to pay that

lmao just saw what u did to your scooby turbo teeth, what a ****ing hypocrit. i think youll find you pay 1800 insurance because you rolled your car not because someone else crashed.
