great way to end the day.

numpty was driving slowly in the right hand lane, wandering around a bit, i slowed down a bit as i came up behind him,then when the right hand turn lane opened up indicated / entered the turning lane - i had the momentum on him - probably going 15/20km/hr faster than him, ie 55 in a 70 zone as opposed to his 40km/hr. then he decided that he wanted to turn right and proceeded to merge into the side of my car.

xl ford ute. red paint on his car from the drivers door back - on the body trim. dinted behind the door, side mold ripped off and broken, rear bumper bar scuffed up. no photo's of his car / i didn't have my phone with me.

i didn't see an indicator - by the that time i realised that he was moving over into my lane i was almost adjacent to his car. i steered as far to the right as i could (without hitting the medium), jammed the brakes on / a wheel locked up slightly i was on them that hard. couldn't avoid it

How frustrating for you,I take it you exchanged particulars,not that the Cops would be interested in a prang like that.Down here,they call it a 'P5',but the problem is when you have a little bit of damage here,a little bit there,it all adds up money wise.Another good reason to get that dash cam head_wall.gif

Depends what I get next...it may be something more suitable!

On that,
Opinions:

NSX - 575 hp hybrid, 0-60 2.9, not timed anywhere yet.

Corvette C7 Z07 - 650 hp, 0-60 2.9, currently 10th fastest car around Laguna Seca (ie; it handles).

Vette is about 20k cheaper.


The Vette hands down, the tuning and modification options will be massive, The NSX is a fantastic bit of engineering, but as an everyday enjoyable car I think it would wear on you.

details exchanged. it wasn't even his car so i'm betting that he was in the doghouse last night with his partner.

i've been busy paying down debts ie the ole credit card - i'll actually be debt free come next weeks payday. and then busy saving for work on the rx7. probably a good time to take stock / bite the bullet and stop procrastinating on purchasing a dash cam. take this as a wake up call.

this is the sort of thing that could get messy if he's less than honest with the situation......... head_wall.gif

still i'm not going to be an ass about it unless he turns around and starts being a dick. i'll go to the place he suggested (his father is a paint rep and may have some pull with this particular body work shop) and try and get the work done as cheaply as possible. there's damage to the wheel as well, which i probably wont worry about. but if i've got to take 'legal' action of some sort it'll definitely be included in a statement of claims.

if you saw the size of the medium strips concrete divider you'd realize why doing the same wasn't an option. though hindsight's a wonderful thing if you're considering trading off where and what you want damaged.

an extra 30cm and maybe there'd have been no contact at all, but i may have damaged steering components, a broken rim, side skirt, sill and front bumper bar etc.

I only put that link up to show how easy it is to collect the evidence on film if you have a Dash Cam,not this is the way you should have handled the situation.You can study it,and fume,plus show his partner the footage,and say this is how he drives your car

Cheers!

It's better in every measurable way - speed, sound, looks, interior (probably)...but it definitely lacks the supercariness of the NSX, which is attractive.

Taylor Swift is reportedly planning a huge birthday celebration in Australia with her boyfriend and best friends.

The singer will turn 26 on December 13, just one day after she wraps up her '1989' world tour in Melbourne and will fly her beau Calvin Harris and many members of her girl squad to Hamilton Island, Queensland for a lavish bash.

Selena Gomez, Karlie Kloss are expected at the party, along with stars including Oprah Winfrey and Ed Sheeran, according to Australia's Daily Telegraph.

Taylor celebrated her 24th birthday with a garden party in Melbourne.

Meanwhile, Selena, 23, recently revealed that she turns to Taylor for romantic advice.

Selena, who split from her boyfriend Justin Bieber last year following almost four years of on/off dating, has admitted she automatically turns to the 25-year-old starlet when she needs help in the "boy department."

Speaking to Britain's InStyle magazine, she said: "I'll be like, 'I think I totally screwed up,' but Taylor says, 'Actually, you didn't,' and shows me how to make my mistakes into something great. People have this fantasy that we're in our underwear, having pillow fights. We just play good music - sometimes live - and eat, and hang out."

spending money on cars is never 'worth it' via a fiscal accounting, but that's not why we do it. still that's only a decision that you can make. mod plates don't cost much - you'll find that you'd probably have to get another one to cover the new conversion / engine & gearbox mounts thumbsup.gif

Queensland schoolgirl on attempted murder charge

A teacher has saved a student from a knife attack by a 12-year-old girl at a school north of Brisbane.

Police say the schoolgirl slashed a fellow student's neck and hands at Caboolture just after 9am on Monday.

A teacher was able to disarm her and save the victim, also 12, who was left with minor knife wounds.

It's the second knife attack at a southeast Queensland school in about three weeks.

Last month, a 12-year-old schoolgirl was charged after allegedly stabbing a fellow student in the chest on the Gold Coast.

It's believed she and the victim, a boy aged 13, got into an argument at Coombabah State High school.

Police haven't named the Caboolture school where the latest attack happened.

The girl has been charged with attempted murder and will be dealt with under the Youth Justice Act.
