Hi guys more bad luck maestro BRM I was driving down a duel carriage way last night I was in the slow lane a van overtook me and a BMW 3 series came in between us bearing in mind there was only two lanes and smashed straight into the back of me then the van spun around straight into the side of me the front and rear doors are smashed in the rear wing smashed in and I dont know if the petrol tank or the fuel pipe has been hit it was leaking petrol everywhere insurance say it might be written off. The BMW driver and passengers where high on drugs which explained why they tried to come inbetween two vehicles on a two lane carriageway. Sad day for my maestro

Sounds like it's the end of the road for your Maestro: I guess the fuel leak will be the result of the filler pipe being ripped out of its joint with the tank when the rear wing got bent.
But at least the car did a good enough job of protecting you (I am guessing you have escaped without serious injury). Let's hope the scumbag driving the BMW was insured......and don't be fobbed off with an offer of £500!1983 (Y) MG 1600
1985 MG EFi with digital dash (owned since 1987)
1987 700 City 1.6 Van
1988 Tandy camper 2.0D
1990 Advantage, just 29k on the clock
1990 Clubman D
1990 MG 2.0i (spares donor)
