This is what happened to my Escort after my ex (was giving her a driving lesson at the time) hit a tree at about 10mph. Not the strongest of cars

Is this just a winter hack or do you genuinely like it?

Just sold it for £100.

Most reliable car i've ever owned, did over 40,000miles in it, started everyday. Scrapped it now, wasn't even anything wrong with it, the guy just drove it onto the trailer

I couldn't be bothered with it really. Got 4 alloys to shift and thought about just scrapping them instead of the eBay routine.

Much less hassle. Slightly less money in my pocket.
