Nooooooooooooo she broke it!!!

33 days. Thats how long I've had my first car. Thanks a bunch... soon to be ex-girlfriend* has gone and stuck my nice C180 into a tree! :eek:

Thankfully it was only in reverse, but still... poor thing. Might be a long time before she gets behind the wheel of it again!

Thoughts on appropriate punishment? May as well laugh about it.....

*not strictly true.

Never let a women drive your car

A C180 is far to "big" for a women to drive.

Just take her car out and treat it like **** and see how she likes it. If you've ever wanted to do hoon around in a car park, use her car.

If you hadn't bought a poverty spec car without parking sensors...

This is what happens when you combine the 2 most dangerous things known to man. Rear wheel drive + women drivers is a disaster waiting to happen. Count yourself lucky

I couldn't think of anything worse than knowing my girlfriend, or anyone else in fact, was driving my car.

Does rear wheel drive really make that much difference when reversing?

Direction of travel is irrelivant where RWD comes in. EVERYONE knows RWD is a widowmaker. Count himself lucky he has no V-tec y0! that could have kicked in while she was attempting to reverse.

Can't see it myself

What, "hoon" around in a 1.4 Skoda? Fat chance!

Parking sensors never stopped my sister from doing 12k worth of damage by reversing into an X5. Seriously, women just shouldn't drive at all.
