Default Really sad day!

Today is a very sad day. My Rover and I were involved in a wreck today. More than likely it will get totalled out. Just when I was getting the bugs work out of it. My heart sank and I watched in disbeliefe as this happened. Atleast it was not my fault and no one was hurt. Im praying they fix it otherwise I am going to need another Rover. I probably wont find one this nice for the price though.

Unhappy

I am sorry to see it. Looks like your Rover took care of you well. I have had two Rover that were hit and totaled in the past and now I am on my third one. You will get another one and enjoy it. I would be tempted to but it back, strip it and use it as a wheelin rig

sorry to hear about your rover, I think you're the second person this week on here to have a bad accident. It just shows how well built they are though, after the accidents people are back home posting online and not in the hospital.

That just hurts to look at those pictures. Glad no one was hurt. I hate to say but I would put money on it being totaled.

I'm glad to hear that no one was hurt. Keep your chin up. There's another Disco out there with your name on it.

I want to see the other car.

Everybody always shows their Rover after accident but never the other car.
I too am glad nobody was hurt, trucks can be repaired/replaced, people cant.

Default Time for a new Disco.

Well.... the body shop quoted me $9,500.00 with out taking anything apart. Guess that one is gone. I am considering a D1 because of the center diff lock (inside the cab) and shorter overhang. That and I might be able to get one cheep enough to put a big *** battering ram on the front. Hoping to go for a 2 inch lift and some 31" tires. Comments, suggestions are welcome and needed. I know quite a bit about Jeeps and Toyota's but these are another beast as far as aftermarket goes. Email me and msg me if needed

Thanks everyone.
