One less EF9 in the world, my car just got totaled.

Yip thats about all there is to it.

Some poor women whos only been in the country for a month and speaks no english turned right infrount of me, plowed into my drivers door, and spun me into a traffic light post, I was traveling at 70kph when she hit my, so the car is to put it as subtly as I can completly fucked.

The accident was totaly her fault, and I have witness and a police report to show it, so hopefully the insurance companys wont be to much of a hassel. I have full insurance, she claims to have 3rd party, but didnt know who with. All I have to do is convince then to pay the value of the car, and not what they think its worth.

Im physicaly OK, a big bruise on my leg, and small cut on a finger, but the car is split open in the left hand side, and if anyone had been sitting the back where it hit the pole they would be dead or close to it. Having the sunroof and drivers window open certianly helped, the only glass left in the car was the frount and rear window, the rest was either all over me, or spread down the road. (im still picking it out of hair) If the sunroof and window were closed I would be much worse off in terms of cuts etc.


The car is a totaly write off, the drivers door, sill and back quater are stoved in aobut 6inchs where she hit me.
And the left hand side is stoved in about 12 inchs at the back seat in the shape of a pole, it spit the sill open. The rest of that side of the car is then stoved accordingly, the roof is bent, so is the floor, and the rear wheel has about 45deg of toe in.
It split the fuel tank open, which caused a lot of worry, fire brigade was called, and the towie wouldn't take it away till they showed up and gave the OK.
The car folding up and being destroyed is what saved me. A heavier car would have transfered more of the impact to me, and I might be sitting here with whiplash etc.
I also let go and forced myself to relax when i saw the pole coming, which also helped.
Although I cant help thinking now that if I had my old Triumph if it would have simply shoved her little honda aside and not even been moved off course.


Im somewhere between being very pissed off at losing what was a rare and very enjoyable car to drive, being happy that no one was hurt, knowing that there are no what ifs and whats happened has happened, and of course knowing that it was just a car and I can buy another one. Its what being a comsumeristic society is all about. (and you thought I was going to write all of that and not put something philosophical in!)


So heres to Honda Civic, EF9 SiR, YJ6718. :( :( :( :(

doh! glad you're ok though moppie...keep us posted.

Shit man I was just lookin at your pics of the car about 2 mins ago, fuckin hell..... really glad to hear your ok though...

Sorry to hear that Moppie. :( I know you loved your baby very much. I see there is a Civic curse on AF as well. I suffered dammage last January b/c of the AF G20/Primera curse. :( We're all just glad you're okay. Just make sure when you get a new car that you leave AF so as to keep the curse away. ;)

I'm very sorry to hear that moppie, but glad that your alright, and the car did what it was supposed to when it crashed. Where are the pics up at?

Oh shit moppie, that sucks :( I was actually going to get in contact with you today and see how things were going with it too. I'm glad you're ok though mate - that's what counts. But hell, I think my EF9 is going to go into the garage and I'll drive a Falcon from now on. :eek:

And to think that I was going to see if I could get some spare parts through you too... :(

Are you going to see if you can get another SiR?

Cheers
Pete

and if anyone replies to its' comments with something else just as slanderous.....ur just as childish....imo

Stali... and everyone else.....don't waste the effort....seriously. you just give the n00b more chances to run at the mouth. don't give them the attention they despirately want. IGNORE is the key

the important thing is Moppie is okay. not someone who is trying to create attention for themselves.

true. sorry im gonna delete my posts

Moppie,

Sorry to hear about the car. It seems that there has a been an epidemic of accidents involving ef, ee, and ed vehicles. Glad to hear that you are alright.:)

Look pal, I don't ever talk to LadyNRedSi, so this is completely unbiased when I say this.

One more personal attack on anybody here and you're banned. That is all there is to it. Am I clear?

Thank you Polygon.

Poor moppie, he is going to come back, see that some people are actually glad he is ok, and then 3 noobs starting crap along with about 5 deleted posts by the mods. Gotta love poeple who just posts to start crap.

moppie is having troubles posting. he asked i leave this message...

""Thanks guys for all the surport, im totaly blown away by it. I dont even know most of you, our only common conection is the cars we drive, but its good to know despite my recent lack of activity that Im still considered part of the comunity.

I went and had a look at the car today, and its a lot worse than I thought it was. The left hand B pillar is sitting in the back left passangers seat, if there had been anyone in there they would be badly hurt. Both frount seats are bent, and drivers seat was pushed in by the door, Im luckey thier buckets, and so took the force instead of the door hitting me.

Iv taken some pics, and Ill get them put up as soon as Im able.

Thanks guys! And please everyone be carefull and always wear your belt, it saved my but, and with all the love in here I would hate for anyone to get hurt, our cars can be replaced, but we can't.

oh and I might have lead on another SiR. :D "

OOOHHh and i was gonna IBL, i thought this post was getting way out of hand...good thing we have mods that jump in and take of peeps who ony wanna start fights......

yea, dont be like me and join the dark side of nissan, i HATE my 240, mainly because it is not a fourth gen hatch, the only thing i like is the engine that has twice as much hp. and the rear wheel drive, BUT i would rather have a SLOW ASS 4th gen hatch that a KINDA sporty 91 nissan 240sx any day, hence the reason im ricing it out :D

LOL moppie... I was looking forward to being the ONLY EF9 owner on the forum and then you get a lead on another one - damn ;)

Does this mean that Strong will have some spare EF9 parts??? :P

Kidding mate - 'tis really good to hear you're ok :)



BTW - to the newbie-attentionwhore-trolls: STFD and STFU plz. Your only saving grace is that in the end, (insert deity here) probably doesn't judge people based on the fact that they are complete and utter tossers... well, you'd better hope not anyway :finger: :devil:
