Not so LEET Anymore
here’s pictures of my recent misadventure.
I was along the 13.1km LDP, puchong bound where it was a crawl. the rebadged Toyota MPV (i think it’s a wish) stopped in front of me, and i stopped just a few cm from kissing it, then WHAM! an Iswara/Saga hit me from the rear. he’s probably doing 60-80 and no tire screeching, which is the odd part. the impact was so strong that my ray bans flew off my face, and the wind knocked out me. if i had air bags, they would probably deploy
and give me a second beating. lucky i opted for an M-line. and this is how my seat looks like after the impact.
I’m no car guru, so I’m not sure what to make out of this, twisted driver
seat. Is it suppose to happen this way? from the looks of it, I think that the seat absorbed most of the impact and all I suffered was a little adrenaline rush and neck ache.

My Damage
3-5 inches shorter from the front and rear. radiator was pushed all the way back till touching with the extractor cover accessory belt poped out, so couldn’t power alternator, water and power steering pump probable pulley damage possible drive shaft damage wasted all the head lamps, tail lamps and fog lights. impact so strong till the rear caved in and broke the spare tire mounting. it’s a good thing i wasn’t ferrying anyone. the speaker cover for rear passenger pop out, so the rear seats are getting more cramp then it already is.
Tough Car
my doors opened flawlessly,
hazard lights still worked
still able to steer when pushed
Good People Still Exist
I’ve got to thank this two indian dudes who helped me pushed my car to the side so not to block traffic.sadly the left quickly before i had the chance to shake their hands. but i did wave at them though.
Last But Not Least
VULTURES!
yup, caught them all in one single shot.
