So I was on my way to work when this happened.
The person that caused the accident didnt stick around.
I hope its not totaled.
I couldnt see the car that i had the accident with cause this was my view so he took off.

Another horrifing shot

 

howd the interior hold up? as horrifing as that looks it looks like it did what it was designed to do... hope youre ok

 

Interior held up great.
No damage past the firewall.
Maybe salvagable no frame damage
No engine damage that we can see.
I am really sore and my back hurts.
The air bag did not deploy.

 

I am so sorry to see this. What was the cause of the accident? I would wager you are close to totalling, depending on any drivetrain damage. Does it still drive?

 

The cause was another car swerved into my lane doing 5 mph and I was doing 35. When I went to hit the brakes i slid through a puddle and the impact.
The car that I had the accident with was a 1985 ford F150.
The only severe damage was the radiator was pushed into the throttle body. The car does run but the throttle cable is dsepressed and will rev.

 

So Hit & Run?

 

Ummmmm......No aribag deployment?! That look's like good enough conditions for it to go off. You travelling at 30 or so at time of impact. Scary.

Sorry to see it happen to your baby, but glad you're alright.

I know they can deploy. Maybe this impact was too much on one side.

Last June when my truck was in the body shop for an accident, there was a TCM xB on the lot that had a front end collision. It was more straight-on, and both bags had deployed and were hanging out on the seats.

 

The rear of a truck is a tough place to hit, especially a full-size truck. A Mazda 626 had rear-ended my little Mazda truck. There was a steel bumper, a 3500 lb trailer hitch and a steel ladder frame back there. The car's front end was mashed back to the windshield. My truck just needed a new trailer hitch, bumper and rear panel.

 

So you rear ended the truck. Are they saying that you are at fault since the other guy booked?

 

Airbag didnt go off because you didnt actually push in the front bumper support which is where the sensors are. You basically went under the truck you hit. If you had hit a lower sitting vehicle with the same force Im betting the bags would have deployed...

...And yeah, Im thinkin its totalled but I could be wrong on that one. Theres a chance its fixable

 

Dang! That sucks. I'm glad you're okay. If my wife would see that pic, she'd probably cry. Her RS2 is her baby.

 

that sucks for u man but at least ur ok
for ur car the sucks .

 

sounds horrible man good thing the box held up with the hit! glad ur ok! :D

 

That sucks! I'm glad your alright though ...Maybe mods can move this to the DIY section on how to properly clear your corners...j/k...If they total it are you gonna try to get the RS3 or find a used RS2?

 

This was my gradmothers car that I had borrowed 5 min before the accident.
The insurance company said I was not at fault since the other car involved left the scene.
They are not totaling it.
The damage looks worse than it really is.
About 8,000 in damage and my rs1 grill.
If anyone can find a Rs1 grill that would help alot.

 

DOH! You wrecked your grandmother's car?!? No cookies for you.

 

oh man dude, that sucks, well at least ur ok and they are not totalling the box, cause then there would only be 2499 RS2.0's left

 

that aint pretty

 

your grandmother had cleared corners, silver painted engine cover, and an "ebay special" fake CF dash kit??? how old is she???
