was parked at the lights today on hill alongside an ambulance full of old people. the driver jumped out and crossed the road, after a minute the van started rolling back, all the poor ol' pairs just lookin out the window in despair! it turned out and caught the rear panel on de fto and then continued straight into a morriss minor behind me!! to be honest i was more worried for the passengers than my car! pity none of them new how to use the handbrake!! it was insured with public insurances ltd., they're waitin on me to send them in a quote for repair! be curios myself to see how much mitsubishi will quote for new rear panel and respray!
