So after acquiring this from Choppin on the 16th

This happens tonight :/
Just left work, got around the corner and was approaching a fairly nice corner at a generous speed. As I was going round the corner the back end was abit twitchy but then I must have ran over something or hit an oil slick because I lost control, tried fighting her to no avail and ended up spinning and stopping by hitting the adjacent gutter with an absolutely destroyed tyre and a broken arm! The beam is going to need changing, bought new break discs because it snapped the disc but its destroyed the alloy because instead of waiting 5 hours for recovery I decided to drive home as I only live 1/2 mile away, but now the alloy is destroyed :/ Luckily I have a set of clones with brand new tyres (budgets unfortunately)
Gutted is an understatement!
Hopefully she will be back on the road by the end of the week.
