well as a lot of you know, I have always been here posting problems with my car, and I appreciate all the knowledge and help you guys gave to me. I admit the problems were frustrating, and despite all the problems i had, all the frustration changed when the accident I had today happened..

Comming on a on ramp at 75mph as I usually do, was a turning one, and the road was wet, lost control of the car and hit one guard rail and then hit the other one. Front end is mangled, engine shot a few puffs of smoke, started once then died. Both sides are messed up on the front end, Hood wont open... It looks awful, boith headlights are busted...

To me it looks like my 2001 volvo s80 t6 is totalled with 120,000 miles on it. I just have mad respect for the fact the impact felt like a little bop on the hat.... Air bags didnt even deploy

The STC, Low brake fluid, abs light, check engine light are all lit up a lol. Does not start...

Im happy to walk away from it like I did. And Im even happier I was able to walk away from it unscathed.... I did not even feel the impact or the force, was shocked...

 

Glad you are ok!!!!!

 

thanks, will have some pictures up of it later :/...

 

Wow, glad to hear you are ok and def. owe it to driving a Volvo

 

pictures ...................... I feel so guilty seein this like this out in the street...

 

OUCH sorry it is that bad!!

 

Yeah. lucky thing Armco railings are designed to absorb vehicle impacts by deflecting the vehicle.....try the same trick on a forest road, but hit trees instead.

Regards, Andrew.

 

I dont know if they were armco railings but they were the cement ones. What you think, ya think this is totalled? Im guessing it is..

 

I would say yes.

 

You guys got any suggestions as a momento to keep from it ? I was thinking the grill or the lettering on the back of it..

 

Maybe the grill.

 

well I say bye bye to it on Monday :S was a good run..
