Yep unfortunatly some prick went through a redlight in excess of +40mph, hit my rear passenger side and made me roll over, spin into a traffic light and land on the side ! ! im battered and bruised and feeling sick, lucky to be alive.  Car really did save my life all the airbags went off .

I've was planning to mod like a whore next week , and was on my way to pick up my refurbed LMs today from Dav at Pureklass :(

Dont think i want to drive for a while.

Thanks for the kind words does mean alot to me.

Raj.

I felt sickened when I read the title but didn't expect it to be yours!

That's horrendous. Glad to hear you're okay. Life must've flashed before your eyes!

Any idea what happened to the other car? Must've been damaged. Did it stop?

Oooof!

Not good! :(

I hope you're ok.

I do echo everyone else that has said to get driving again VERY soon. Having had a serious accident myself some time ago, where put a car into a ditch on black ice, I strongly advise you get behind a wheel again soon to build up your confidence again.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I loved that car.. Not only has some tit written of one awesome looking ED30, but he's also made an innocent owner/driver not want to get back into a car for a good while. Hope the tit gets his punishment pronto. All because he couldnt be arsed to wait a couple of mins for the next green..  :fighting:
Anyway, hope you recover mentally and physically soon Raj. I know what airbags are like when they go off and they are not something you want to experience every day, especially 10 of them.  :surprised: But they certainly do there job that's for sure..
Hope everything gets sorted out soon mate and chin up..  :wink:

Hi Raj, really sorry to hear of your terrible accident, I hope this b**tard gets what he deserves. Your car was awesome but fortunately the main thing is you are ok and were able to walk away without serious injury. I hope the mental scars heal quickly and that you are back behind the wheel real soon.

Yeesh, really sorry to hear that mate :/ No one deserves anything like that happening to them.
I know you're in a state of shock now and don't want to drive but you really need to in about a weeks' time, behind the wheel of anything really, to get your confidence back up. It's taken me almost a full year since my accident to get my confidence back.
I know you'll mourn the loss of the machine as well, but (and it sounds trite to say this) it's best just to think of all the times you enjoyed with it.
Please get yourself seen to by a doctor as well ASAP. Adrenaline and shock means that you often miss out on injuries when you check yourself over, and the paras at the scene (if they arrived) don't really give enough of a checkover. You need to get yourself checked out to make sure there's no internal damage or trauma, as a roll is one helluva incident to go through.

raj sorry to hear about the accident take cmdrfire advice and get checked out at A&E as i have to thank them for identifying a serious injury that put me on the sidelines for 3 months

does take time to get your confidence back especilly after such a shunt, takes times and it does get better just take it easy
