Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral Rocco: Wrote my car off...

Well, few of you know but for those that haven't heard i somewhat wrapped my car in the early hours of thursday morning.

Long story short i went round a bend slightly faster than i should have and swirved missing a milkfloat, slammed in the the grass embankment ( it was a typical country lane) and back flipped the car on to its roof and landed in the hedge on the other side of the road back on all fours.


Within the minutes the 3 coppers had arrived on scene and began to grill me, they said i was very lucky to come out alive let alone walk, looking at these pictures in the cold light of day i tend to agree.


That's basically it, i have to pay £165 for a driver improvement course and all the fee's that come with the recovery but still counting myself lucky, I haven't really suffered any injuries apart from cuts and bruises.


Thanks to Jimbo for his lightening quick reactions otherwise it could have been alot worse! lol. Seriously though, cheers for the help Jim. Shall be out and about in no time people, and back on the scene lol.













And Me after the event.

welcome 2 the club mate!

Gutted to hear that rocco and ask pingu about that course he had to do. Look forward too seeing you back to it soon. Chin up.

i never had to do it! but all my crashes are within the speed limit! never ever had to pay anythin either! even for the bus stop!

gutted 4 ya m8, hope ur ok

Hope youre okay Rocco!

Jimbo saves the day again

tony ur jus not right thats all that am saying hope ur ok mate

Glad your ok mate,is the car a write off or is it jsut a few scratches on the roof? Driver improvement course is a piece of piss and made me a better driver so i think theyre worthwhile, however, what i learnt on the course wouldnt have prevented my crash.Any pics?

Rocko, cars can be replaced.

Glad your okay, we all live and learn matey

You'll see when webby gets the pics up how bad the damage is, all I'm saying is it won't exactly t-cut out and I think this is the worst wreckage I've ever seen up close.

Rocco, I know I've already said it but it's a miracle you're alive mate, my mind went blank when I came round the corner and saw your car in the hedge, wasn't sure what I was gonna find looking at the wreckage. A front passenger would've been at least hospitalised, anyone in the back wouldn't have made it. Really can't believe you walked away with cuts and bruises.

Just a thought, you should send the pics in to crash of the month coz i have no doubt in my mind that you'd win. You should mention that we found your front numberplate about 8' up the hedge too.

were you drivin away from your ganster enemies mate, no way, gutted for you mate, well as every one says , your lucky to be alive, such a nice car too. boo hoo. poor rocco.

Like i said the other day your a very very lucky guy!! Good to see your ok though

And the pictures are BAD

gutted mate afetr u spent so long looking for the car.

hope no milk was spilt only joking mate glad u are ok

Bummer man. glad your ok matey

Ive updated the first post to show Rocco's Crash with some horrific pictures. (Not the last one).

Amazing you walked away...

Glad your okay
