Right. I'll be getting on with getting the ZXR back on the road now then, as that's my car NCB gone.

Yeah, all good. Turns out my kneecap is harder than the dashboard in the 200s.

Basically, I was coming down a steep, wet, muddy, and apparently icy road just outside Calne, and there was a corsa parked in the road. As I approached it, an MR2 came around the corner, so I tried to stop behind the corsa to let him past as it was his right of way. As I tried, all four locked up, and when I released them a little bit to try to get some traction, I got jerked sideways into the MR2 instead of the corsa.

Yeah, thought I might have escaped my normal run of luck, being that I've grabbed another part time job, and for the first time in three years, am not single. Apparently it was just lagging behind, and has caught up with me in a big way.

Maybe, Baz.

Don't know how hard I'm going to get fecked by insurance, I'm thinking of a 214 or something if I can afford to insure even that...

I had a go at flipping the MR2 - Ian said it was lifted a good few feet into the air by the 216...
