sab6024 Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Yesterday morning I was at work when I had a slight accident in my Scorpio I'm OK, a bit annoyed as the Scorp was the only reliable car I had at the time I had just been and done 2 calls and on my way to the third I lost the back end on some pretty bad ice and ripped through a Farmer's fence My colleague came and picked me up leaving the car where it was and took me back to collect the Fezzy to finish my rounds Well some good news has come out of it (besides writing off one of the ugliest cars around) my Mum has decided to sell me her Zetec Fezzy for £100 for me to use for work....mmmmm first job, strip that motor out and shove it in the front of a certain Bronze MK1 So good news about the Scorp then
Posse Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Shit sab glad your ok m8 that poor farmers fench
sab6024 Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Posted January 11, 2009 He weren't too pleased as he'd only just rebuilt it after the last car went through it....this is it now this is the front of the Scorp, I'd damaged all underneath too And you can see where I went off
Durham Fiesta Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 its actually a bit of an improvment to the bug eyed front end glad your ok
Copey Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 is that the 2.9 scorpio? if so, new engine for the capri, if not...its no great loss glad you are ok!
sab6024 Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks, I'm fine, more annoyed than anything It's only a 2.0 16v motor so nowt to write home about. I was thinking how lucky I was to be driving the Scorpio when it happened, seeing as the Fez is the one insured for work
zetecmk2 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 no good doner??? next time, crash something better!! seriously, glad you're ok!!

caprinerd Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 sab hope your ok hun dont worry about the plastic it can be replaced as long as your ok
sab6024 Posted January 12, 2009 Author Report Posted January 12, 2009 I'm fine thanks everyone. Been using the Fez for work and now the water pump has packed up so Pudge is finishing work early tonight to get the Capper back on the road no good doner??? next time, crash something better!! Pudge wanted the motor to put in the front of his Transit but we haven't got the time or the space to do it at the moment so off to the scrappy the Scorp goes...they're cheap enough to get another
Copey Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 I'm fine thanks everyone. Been using the Fez for work and now the water pump has packed up so Pudge is finishing work early tonight to get the Capper back on the road best watch out for fences in the capper
Trevmk3 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 i did say it needed crashing to look better, didnt mean you had to do it , at least your ok though
sab6024 Posted January 12, 2009 Author Report Posted January 12, 2009 i did say it needed crashing to look better, didnt mean you had to do it , at least your ok though That drivers side wing took some bashing though to be fair...I hit a Golf with it and my brother hit a bollard with it and still didn't improve it, so the fence was the only option
