Default Minor accident.

Had a coming together with a sheep this morning. Thankfully in the Renault.Did not see it until about 10yds away due to fog. Not going too fast,so sheep got away with just a kick up the rear. Got out of car to find bumper,wheel arch liner and chrome light surround had all parted. 5 mins clipping them all back in and it looks like nothing has happened.

Cool

The car done it’s job in protecting you. Hopefully the sheep won’t report it.

Sorry to hear you've had a bump. But as already been said, your car has done it's job and protected you.

Sadly this week one of my lads old school friends wasn't so lucky in a car accident. 23 isn't an age to end on.

I don't think Lordy would be discussing his sex life on here.
