Winter 3 yrs ago! Young man scratching his head thought momentum would carry him up steep hill in the snow but overlooked slight difficulty in steering! He's one of a generation that hadn't had much snow-driving experience in UK. Still, I got a new, standard, front end out of it - although that stainless tube bumper certainly did its job! Audi was written-off.
Suggestion to make the world a safer place: All driving licence tests should be done in the snow, in a vehicle without ABS. Would work wonders for public transport...
I feel I need to clarify, the insurance company wrote my 460 off and after 2 months of battle, I got a payout as well as getting the 460 back and after then selling it and combining the money I got a 463. Ironically someone did put the 460 back on road and it is for sale on auto trader, for around 5k ..
