    BANG !!! - My first in the VR-4

    Someone rear-ended me yesterday. It was under 5mph, and only a 1/2 inch scratch on the bumper. So it could have been worse.

    I still swore out loud.
    We work to live, and to live is to drive a VR-4, around corners at speed. But it costs see here

    Oh no!

    I swear these cars should have rubber strips all around them and a vertical poll giving them electricity.

    Indeed. Good job it's nothing serious.

    Still a pain in the a$$ though. Hope you get it sorted quickly.

    Sorry to hear about your rear ender Richard, small it may be but any kind of damage is to much damage to these works of mechanical art.

    A bit off topic... But what a phrase! They are works of art.

    True, hence the initial pain felt, and my unusual use of colorful language.
