Found these old pictures of my first ever (and so far only) crash. All my fault sorry to say, and i did get booked for it. Too fast in the wet, and hit a van coming in the opposite direction (you can see it on the pavement in the background). Nobody hurt...thank goodness....except pride. I remember thinking just before the impact, damn it...now i cant say ever again that i have never had an accident.
What a disaster. Only one season old, and they are horribly coroded already. Why, oh why didnt i wash and dry them before putting them into storage for the winter. Any suggestions on how to repair them are of course welcome.
So, Magnus, this one is for you. Its not super tight...but hey, i dont drive these things every day you know!
Managed to borrow a Scania V8 for the weekend (range and split manual) to keep my hand in on the driving. Fully loaded, it gave me a chance to get a bit more familiar with a manual, and particularly Scania manual gearbox. Also took the time to have another practice at reversing. It was all good fun!
