Don't drive it! I drive an 8v and my 16v is under cover! I just got
into an accident today and it really doesn't matter to me =) This lady
was making a left turn accross my lane and this Isuzu was blocking her
view so she moved forward a wee bit too much...screeeeeeeeech.....BAM!
She had a Jeep Cherokee and I wrecked her bumper cover. She ruined my
front 1/4 panel, hood, and headlamp assembly. About $150-200 worth of
damage for parts and who knows how much for labor. I have to get the
police report tomorrow. I'm glad I wasn't driving my 16v. Of course
then I could have gotten my WHOLE front end repaired! Ah well.
