knocked a wall down, with My Range Rover :(
Lewis.J.P_1987:
The council are going to have there own guys repair it, but thanks for the offer. ;)
I don't tend to use the handbrake, 99% of the time i put it in park! :doh:

I use to do that as well, but if its on a slope I found the praking lock disengaged with a rather too noticeable click. Fixing a worn handbrake is easier than a gearbox.

Hopefully my insurance company will be lenient :oops: Im writing this after spending an hour filling in police paperwork :roll:
On another note the Range Rover was not damaged. Im a bit [!Expletive Deleted!] off, for such a stupid mistake! :doh: :x

LOL. I dropped off the misses parents to the airport in her step dads audi. As i parked the car up and put some bags in the house, i noticed the car was rolling backwards so i ran behind it to try and stop it but I couldn.t hold it. It forced me into the neighbours garden with the sitting on top of this rose bush. I got in the car to get it out the garden to find the bumper had fell off. I was Shi*ing it, Took me about an hour the get it back on.

lmao.... surely common sense should prevail and if a car, which is anythin up to 2 tonnes of metal, is rolling away the last thing we should do is get behind it!!
but, saying that, i dont suppose we have much time for common sense in a spur of the moment situation like this... and to be honest, id probably have done the same thing myself!! :roll: :roll: :roll:
glad to hear youre ok tho mate and no injuries were sustained and the bumper got fixed!! and what the owner doesnt know about wont hurt him!! lol :twisted: :twisted:

Well I did tell him about it, because i didn't want the neighbours saying something and him asking me what had happened to his car. I didn't mention about the bumper part though.
