Hi you all I hope everyone is enjoying there beloved Aurions !

I've had better days than today and the events that occurred ! I went for about a 30km drive to a particular shop anyway I didn't know the area so I had my phone navigating me I was cruising at about 75km I knew I had to turn off soon I just didn't expect it to come up on me that fast ! Basically what's occurred is the Google Maps by the time it said turn left here I was probably to close to try and stop and I should have kept driving and done a U turn 

But I jumped on the brakes and skidded up the embankment and wiped out a sign 🤯

Hey Ben, sorry to hear that mate. I've lost count the times I've missed a turn having not paid enough attention or misjudging the distance on the stupid google mappery.

In my opinion, I would always just keep going and never hurt the car to try and make an uncomfortable turn. No big deal really, just cruise on down the road until it's safe to turn around and happy days. 

So your previous post was the damage you were asking a bill for then.. I see now.

Have you had any quotes yet ?
