    With a bit of bad luck and bad judgment I have bent my mk3. blind bend, a van doing a 3 point turn and a bit of....well enthusiastic driving shall we say, and it's done. Took a gap that then closed,just clipped the van and rattled it through 50 yards of hedge/trees, not the best car in the world but I'm still devasted. roofs kinked and the n/s has shunted 2 inches back.
    It's alot worse than it looks in the photos unfortunately, but I've learnt my lesson needless to say, glad to of got away with as lightly. If I had of hit it head on i would of been lucky to walk away.
