That does look really bad . At least you were able to walk away from that so that you can motor again sometime soon. Good luck.

 

omg! Glad to hear you got out safe and sound. Sorry about the poor MINI but glad that she gave her life to save yours.

 

Geez, I hate hearing things like this but glad you're OK. It really is amazing though just how tough our little cars are.

 

Glad you're safe.
I have a few questionsif you don't mind:Did any airbags go off? What did DSC do or not do?


Paul

 

So sorry to hear about/see your beloved MINI in such bad shape.
But glad that you walked away in-tact.

Hugs & Good Thoughts,

 

answer for him.

The airbag did NOT go off, he didnt have that much frontal impact, he slid into the tree from the side. He honestly doesn't remember what the DSC did or didnt do. He remembers getting loose then being under the tree, he doesn't even remember ducking.

 

MINIs can be replaced, you cant. Glad to hear that you were mostly unhurt! By the looks of things, it could have been very nasty!

 

Glad you are okay!

Did the head curtain airbags deploy? Does your car have DSC? Would DSC have possibly helped steer you clear?

Look forward to your new Mini.

 

Yes I have DSC dont member if it did anything. No the bags did not deploy. I look forward to a new MINI too. Hope I get one soon. Depending on finances I may have to get a Cheap commuter car before a MINI though. But I will stay on NAM.

 

OMG, what a shocker. I'm thrilled that you are ok.
I love Bumble and am very upset to hear of his passing. I really wanted a LY MCS, but alas, it wasn't offered in '06. (My favorite cat of all time was also named Bumble, so your Bumble always made me smile)
Good luck finding the next MINI of your dreams and can't wait to see what you get.
Annette

 

WOW glad you're ok! crazy....just crazy...

 

Oh no.........gosh..I'm SO sorry about your precious MINI....but on the other hand, YOU are alive!! USAA will treat you right I'm sure - we have them and they've been just superb!!

Donna

 

I so glad that you are ok, but make sure you get a check up by the Doc. Every time i see a recked MINI it makes me cringe, good luck with your new MINI when you get him/her......

Regards,

Scott & "Merlin"

 

Really glad you're okay. There are a few more MINIs out there than, say a Ferrari Enzo. Time to get a Chili Red one.

 

holey moley! You are extremely lucky, tho' I am sorry about Bumble. Hope you find a new Bumble.

 

you can't. Glad to hear that your pretty close to fine. Modern cars are so much safer than they used to be.

See if you can pry off a badge or something as a souvineer.

Matt

 

I picked up the driver side mirror cap, and when I go to get my stuff out of the car, I may pick up some more souvineers.

 

My condolences on Bumble, but I am glad that you are ok. Bumble went out as any loved MINI would want to.. protecting their motoring pal. Hope everything goes well with the insurance (another satisfied USAA member here), and that you are happily motoring again soon.

 

Geez, how scary! Glad you could walk away from it - do go see a doctor though, something like that can have more effects then you know or feel at first. Take care.

 

Holy crap man! Glad to hear you are ok and hope everything get remedied quickly.

Sorry to hear it got squirrely on you, I assure you I had nothing to do with it.

 

Glad to hear you're doing OK ... but come-on, an accident? Looks to me like someone wanted a convertible REAL bad!

Cars are nice but it's the people in them that are special.
Take it easy for a few days. You might become aware of more aches and pains after the shock wears off.

Glad to hear you're ok - total bummer on the MINI.
Take a day off - you'll know how you really feel tomorrow.

 

Wow!!! I am glad you are ok! Be sure to get some souvenires from the car when you pick up your personal items!

 

So sorry to see those pics but glad you came out of it fairly unscathed. Yikes!

 

MAN!!! So sorry! Glad you're ok...and hope you find another MINI soon!
