My first car (ST) lasted a memorable 22 hours.

Hi guys.

One of the worst things happened to my "new" second hand 2013 Fiesta ST on Friday evening. (7th of Feb)

I picked her up from a private seller after payment confirmation was received on Thursday afternoon.
I was boxed in and had to watch being rear-ended in my mirror by a Toyota Hilux sitting at a red robot/traffic light. I knew it was over for my baby when I saw he wasn't slowing down from 400m+ away.

This is my first ever accident and I am in pure shock. I can't believe this happened to me in my first car, despite only having it for 22 hours.

The other party (Hilux) is fully liable, but I took 3 months to find the best kept ST, she was close to brand new for 2013. Also paid 30% more than the retail price, and my insurance only covers retail price.

I want to cry

Oh no, I am sorry to hear that. That's some real bad luck, but as long as you are okay.

Here I am with my soul crushed because someone backed into my car and scratched the rear bumper yesterday, I can't imagine this happening.

That's terrible. Glad you made it out OK. Hope you can find another...better one!

Sorry bru. I see you in Durban.

Previous seller moved from Durbs around 4 years ago.

It's a JHB baby now.

Cars can be replaced ...People cant! I'm sure you can find another one.....at least it wasn't a Hit and run!

Cry if you must but it’s a goner. These cars like all cars are empty shells ready to be filled with your mods. Find another and get back on the horse that threw ya.
