Dude I hope you are OK.

Is insurance handling it? Why is this goodbye? You will be coming back when it gets fixed? :)

23k of damage.. its worse then it looks..

insurance is handling it all but i wont be getting another stivo.. probably not even a toyota

Why? Is that the insurance company saying that or is it your personal preference?

i have no interest in any toyotas at the moment.. nothing handles well enough for me without mods..

although i think a drive of a new levin with EBD and BA would be interesting to see how different it drives.

i was alone, my friend got there to pick me up before the cops.. cops didnt say anything. i admitted speeding a bit and they seemed happy with my honesty. not drilling or lectures or anything. they just filled out the report and i got the fine. They were really nice about it.

a clio sport came flying past when we were there tho and they just shook their heads.. :/

neg driving. which they were going to give me either way. but if i said i was doing the limit they'd know i was lying. at least by saying the truth they trust what im saying and dont have to ask too many questions.

last thing you need is to be interogated after a near death experience...

Sorry to see your car like that, least your ok.

So the car's written off... 23k worth of damage, ouch, guess it realy does look worse than it does.

Looks like your engine is still in good nick, im sure someone will pick it up.

I also know that xploshun is looking for a mp3 deck, and there are always ppl looking for the wheels.

Any chance of buying the car back and stripping it for parts?

You've seen what vultures we're like on here.

yeah worse.. steering arm snapped, cv joint was farked, airbags mean new dash and steering wheel and windscreen. the panel came in and hit the abs so thats probably stuffed too... it all adds up.

makes me believe what ive heard about the old camry's.. apparently you can buy all the parts to build one yourself... for over $200,000

haha, noway. it was on finance so the loan company pretty much forces me to get it written off. the stereo was aftermarket and i already sold the mp3 deck when i took it out ages ago..

all i have left is 1 sportivo badge and a fog light that fell off.. the skirt on that side seems to have dissapeared too.. damaged so i dunno why anyone would steal it. but it dissapeared between the towie and the insurance holding yard.

Sorry to hear about the accident man, atleast your ok and no physical harm is done. The OP is a scarry stretch of road, i cant believe your brave enough to go there at night. Anyways takecare, and even if you drive a different car, you know TOCA welcomes you.

Goodluck mate

That's because Clio drivers are ****ers (except for les he's cool) :lol: .

Mate, these things test us. You've learnt something, no matter the cost. It may have cost you a car unfortunatley, but...like the other guys have said, you have your health and the opportunity to grab something else and learn from the mistake. You're most welcome to cruise with us anytime. We're like a family. Type of car? It matters not. You're a good bloke, be sure to stick around irregardless.

*thumbs up*

Keep those on your wall to constantly remind you of the fun you had, as well as reminder to yourself to learn from your mistakes to make yourself a even better driver.... next time you'll be drifting around that corner Initial D style :D

Whatever doesnt kill us only makes us stronger (and better drivers).

Mate the Sportivo has EBD and BA as well. But true though in stock form the Corolla isn't the best handling car especially with Turanza's. Mine lasted 4 hours on the car before I swapped them ;)
