Default One less lion on the road...
Guy across the road has just managed to slam his car into a tree. Half hour ago was arguing with his wife, hitting walls or something (to the point where my father was just about to head over..)... got in his car, took off, 5 houses up the road there's a sharp right hand, too much speed, straight into a tree.. Serves himself right.

He left in a huff (back to his house)... 3 people from the house on the corner came out and had a look... I think he's only just walked back up to it.
Imagine trying to explain that one to the missus.
"I, ahh errr.. go look up the street, wench"

The corner is bad enough if another car is coming, you must swerve out a bit... would not have like to have seen a kid on a bike/walking along...

If this is some sort of attempt at Holden bashing then it is pretty pathetic. Maybe I can take photos of the next Ford I see written off on the side of the road and make a big deal and laugh about it.

you could.... but I give it a life span of 30 seconds.
Remember.. this is FORDForums.com.au.. sure we try to be fair and unbiased.. but we are not..
Besides, if a tool did this in a Ford we'd still all point and laugh, just the sort of fun loving guys and gals we are. :thebirds:

If you are a Holden fan on a ford website then you need to have a better sense of humour than that.

Just had another ride up the road for a sticky beak.
He's sitting in his car, his sister has just arrived (late 30's/40's so adults) Guy who's tree the property was on and has been knocked onto his driveway came out and said what if there were kids around. Plenty of words said (by the driver, who is English) to the guy (who is Irish) VERY almost got violent, I don't think the cops have been called yet.. might have to be.
Forget the holden bashing, the driver is a complete ****er.
