Kimberley's (one of the members of this forum) skyline has been written off after her ex bf crashed it, this is the same guy who drove her car for her on the one cruise she was able to attend and subsequently got lost as well.

The accident happened on the exit of a roundabout, the car is fairly well damaged and insurance assesors have decided its too costly to repair.

the sad part about it is kim's parents have decided that she will not be allowed to replace the car with another skyline, deeming that the cars are too powerful for her, even tho she obviously managed to keep her car in fine order till her ex got his mitts on it.

she is very upset about it and i doubt she will see this, tis a sad thing :D

How old are you kim if you don't mind me asking? Your parents won't let you have another skyline? Who's boss here?

Fair enough if you were the one that crashed it but for someone to say that you have to downgrade your car performance wise when you can drive a skyline responsibly and under control is a joke. Most likely they'll want you to get something like an excel (cheapo shitbox)...and the skyline would run rings around a car like this...handle much much better and therefore be safer.

Sorry to hear about the acco to.

Regards,

Scott.

sorry to hear that, a skyline is worth more than any car I know, like myself I have been driving for 12 years,a nd I drive as a job, so I know how to handle a car, and a 40 tonne forklift, but I hope you can get things soughtd out, and if your looking for a new bf, im avaiable ;P and I have a skyline =D

I'm 21, the acco happened 3 days after my 21st, so that majorly sucked. The car was hit on the drivers front guard, it crumbled just like aluminium does. The rim split in two, wrecking all the suspension on that side. The crappy thing is that just cause it's got gtr guards, bonnet and front spoiler, it's just gonna be too much to fix.

I have the option to buy it back but the chassis is peeled back or some crap, so it's in my (or everyone else's stupid opinion) best interest to just take the money and run. Even though I didn't crash it, it was my policy, bringing my rating down to a 7, increasing my insurance to $5k+ per year.

The car is getting auctioned at some stage, all I have is a number for the accessor if anyone seriously wants it. I'll try and get some pics of it, before and after.

I have to make the decision to either buy a new car, or a crap one and keep saving for another one later down the track. This is partly smarter then getting another 'line as I can increase my "pathetic" rating and one day when I do get another it wont hurt so much financially. It hurts more that they were gonna fix it and four weeks later they tell me its a total loss. SO NOT COOL!! Note to everyone..........................................

PLEASE DON'T LET ANYONE DRIVE YOUR PRIDE AND JOY, it so ain't worth the risk.

PS: At the end of the day, a male couldn't handle the skyline, GO GIRLS!!!!! :Bang:

sorry to hear about this.

that's why my pos 32 is only insured for me and no one else can drive it.

and indeed there are more accidents caused by male drivers than female drivers. My mum drove a lot worse than me but she never crashed her car. go figure. :rolleyes::rofl:

Kim sooo sorry to hear about your loss! Hope u get back on the road ASAP.

The two years i was with my ex i never let him drive my ZX or my Line when i got it. His mates used to poke the piss cos i wouldnt let him drive it and i used to get the ..... well i let u drive my car .... which was always good comeback as "well its a company car and not yours anyway" ..... but after someone has lost their license 9 times, written off 2 cars and pranged countless others ... would u trust them with your baby? I dont trust anyone with my car .... rightfully so .... its the most expensive thing i own and at 20yrs of age its everything to me ..... its what i get for all the hard work I put in.

Kim if he did that too me i tell ya he would be in hospital right now!!

:grouphug: ...... take care come back and visit :)

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
