912E #576, FUDGE, Gets rear ended!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bueno Estente
Last weekend i want to forget. On Friday the 13th the exhaust fell off my old '89 VW Jetta . 'Smile it could get worse' i thought. I did smile and then on Sunday the 15th........................
I was out with my girlfriend and a good friend from London in the old 912E Fudgester. When were returning from a picnic on Heath Common Wakefield we got rear ended while waiting at a T junction by an errant driver in a Renault . I will not say the gender or hair colour of the errant driver but have a guess.
CLUE: In 25 years of driving i have been hit whilst legally parked 3 times by the same type of gender with the same hair colour
After taking Monday off work to get quotes for repairs from both an independant and an official Porsche agent the quote from the independant is £850 plus parts. I have to hear a reply from the official Porsche centre.
I am informed by the independant garage that rear USA spec overiders that all 912E's are fitted with are NLA
If Nig' who used to own that cool White 912E is reading this then please can you write me a recipt for the pair that i bought from you last summer.
I may have to used 'em to repair Fudge.
Keep taking it 912Easy

Alas no but,
The official Porsche agent took over a dozen though. The car looks OK with just the overiders 'sliced' into. But the bumper is loose, the reflecter panel is cracked and the engine lid is hard to close now
One is as sick as a Goldfish in a bowlful of P*ss

Arrr Gavin I have some thing for you for this..
I thought of you when I was in Oz I have bought a pair of Roo whisles these sit under the car and Animals Deer and Roo's Horses can't stand the high pitched sound we can't here it.. and they run a mile. The flyer says they can here it up to 1mile away..
So I have bought some, if you want some let me know I can get for Sept I think they were $6 Ozy dollars so that's like less than £2 for the two

Put me down for several of the anti female blonde driver series please
Nige, in answer to your previous post, 'Yes please, that'll do nicely'.
Sadly Fudge will loose part of her 'ex San Francisco dog kennel' patina but like Gavin says she will come out looking all the better afterwards.
I guess i'll have to get her totally repainted now as Fudge will look a bit odd with a shiny looking rear end with a faded front
HANG ON A MINUTE!! This is Fudge we are talking about.
Fudge IS odd looking compared to the average UK based 912E anyhow
That's a part of her character.
Keep on taking it 912Easy
