when you know you have a flat

[Piggy]

Had a call the other day...a friend had stopped to help out a guy who had a puncture in a real tricky place...and only down road from me...

so I grabbed some tools and went to help...

not too much of an issue...only he had driven on it clearly for some time...

He said he hit a big pot hole in the last town, got out and looked and it seemed fine, so carried on...then heard some noise and stopped to see the flat...the last town was 5miles from where he stopped....this was the result;





AND it was on the front...how did he not feel that?!

Astra GSi turbo that came into work


Damage to the one side, plus a coilover is f*cked.. haven't done the otherside yet because the locking nut is tight as f*ck

Said he hit a curb doing 30mph (more like 60), then drove 5 miles to us :S
