Default Ouch !

This happened last night.....

The merc (no pictures I'm afraid) hit the 307 which hit the van which hit the Mondeo.

All cars except the merc were parked.

2 Ambulances & 4 police cars on the scene.

Just think, my S could have been there.

I found out that 307 was 1 week old, and the owners are moving house next week, because they think the road is too dangerous !!








Not much left of the 307

Merc must have been shifting! Absolutely gutting for the Pug owner, I'd be hoping that it's a write off if I was them.

I think the cops got him/her.

With that amount of damage, not much chance of a hit'n'run.

Also, as all the other cars were parked, and 2 ambulances were on the scene makes me think that the merc driver / passengers were injured.

It happened late last night, so it was too cold to go outside to have a look.

My guess is that the merc, 307 & van are all right-offs. The Modeo just a few hours in the bodyshop.

I know it's an accident but that's the best looking 307 I've ever seen

best restyling of one I've ever seen!

Still, how easily did it crumple when you look at the back of it!
