Crap you got that right! Never seen so many primadonnas in my life! "What can you do for me?" seems to be the words they live by. Sure glad I'm married and don't have to deal with them! My wife is Norwegian by the way.

According to a recent survey; 9 out of 10 Vikings prefer Blonds...

Still haven't seen them unfortunatly. I'm working from home this week due to a neck and back injury after I got rear ended in my Land Rover this weekend. I was standing still and got creamed by a Toyota going around 45kph. The Toyota is totaled, don't know the status of the LR yet, as the rear frame might be tweaked... All I know is that it doesn't have any crumple zones and I sure felt that...

But as soon as I see the videos I'll post. I not in a hurry though as I've experienced the real thing, and the sound still lingers.

Man that sucks! Damn US drivers Rear ending someone like that is just incomprehensible... I instinctively always look in my rearview mirror when standing at a red light. I have had some near-accidents and it just drives me mad that people don't look where they are driving.
I am sorry to hear that you did get some injury, hopefully no whiplash? If so, sue the crap out of that Toyota driver. Make sure to get physical examinations on a regular basis in order to document any progress/deterioration.

An another note I have had my Alpina exhaust systems modified so that they now have a better flow.... and slightly better sound... You will be impressed when you hear them again

Get well soon!

Michael
