ba dend to a bad week
still getting over the hail damage that was done last weekend, i managed to get through a bad week at work and just survive until the weekend. little
did i know it was going to get worse.
driving down the m2 today a rock from somewhere unknown has flicked up and shattered my windscreen. we were lucky it didn't fall in on us. we
pulled over as soon as possible with out causing an accident. a few hours later i was back on the road. $250 out of pocket might i add!

Not good dude. Shattered windscreens are a pain.
Had one go on the beetle Christmas day a couple of years ago. Had a spare but after the shattered one decided to wait for a laminated one when the
shops opened again.
On the bright side I found a small bit of rust starting under the rubber so fixed it also, so not all bad.
HOPE THIS WEEKS BETTER FOR YOU.

donkey..'but hey its a new windscreen!!! bet the old one was all misty and scratched up..30++ years old...prolly a lot safer now.. Better
glass" not quite. the only one they could get at the time was in W.A and cost would be 600-700 to get it sent over and put in so just got them
to fit a spare i had lying arond. spoke to the m2 office today though, i was told to put the incident in writing and they would review it to see if
theior insurance covered it...if not i'm out of pocket, if so they repay the costs.
