Amazed the airbag didn't go off !

That sounds bad, makes mine trivial!!!!
Mine kerbed her A6 a couple of weeks ago. Days later I was to drive it and only then did she 'confess' :-/
I pointed out it's not just about the wheel looking cr@p after being kerbed, but that a badly damaged tyre is both dangerous and more costly to repair.
Until the next time...

"WIFE KERBED WHEEL!!!!" I'm not sure but isn't that grounds for a Divorce?

Did she "kerb" it straight into a brick wall???
Tapatalking...
My wife knows how careful I am with my cars and she was out in my coupe, pulling up outside our house she was being extra careful to not scuff the wheels.
Obv she was concentrating so hard on not contacting the curb she didnt see the lamp post she drove into
She stopped with a scuff down the front bumper and the wheel resting agains the lampost and to get away from it decided to apply full lock, this basically pushed the car sideways using the face of the wheel agains the post.
Happy... I could of cried

sorry to hear, but this does happen. Eeek. Wouldn't want to be your missus right now!
Malc - you must have too much time on your hands! AND she's old enough to be your grand-daughter! *Scold
