hey guys, just thought ide post up a couple pics of my car after i got rear ended yesterday morning on the way to work. im going to miss this car rear ended by a bf falcon. i was stationary, he hit me at 60kms/h he was slowing down from an 80 zone and bearly braked. dumb **** the impact shunted me into the car infront, resulting in the front end damage yep buckled the roof. car is completly effed, doesnt select gears anymore even when the clutch is in, selector folks are probable broken RIP VL!! ive been looking at getting a kingswood as my next car, ill definetly get another vl later on down the track. i miss it soo bad Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yeh man it was a really clean car, factory manual, low k's. bloody loved that thing. yeh i hope so too, its getting assest by a solicitor today because the insurance company of the bloke that hit me will only want to pay the market value which is bs, and because i only have 3rd party my insurance is irrelevant. the guy who hit me was in a company car ...i hope he looses his job ps sorry bout the pic sizes Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Some drivers are just useless f wits.. this is why i hate seeing people with ad's saying "wrecking vl" when there is nothing or nearly nothing wrong with it. Then what happens is everyone buys the parts and if the seller cant be ****ed selling the shell or cant find someone to buy it they just send it to scrap to get crushed. If people keep doing this which they do everyday it wont be long before there are no good vl shells left for when **** like this happens..

Sad times It's amazing how quickly a car can be damaged beyond reasonable repair, and cars have more than a dollar value. All the best for your kingswood project mate Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
