WOW!!!!!! o_Oo_O
Must've hit that at some pace - hit the coupling off the ball too, looking at the dent in the back of the Disco:oops::oops:

Had a guy come into the w/shop one afternoon with a slightly bent muddy on one of my 8x4 trailers - could we straighten it or replace it ... he'd just taken the side out of a pig'scot 205 in a lane - written it off .. half hour to straighten the muddy and he was on his way
was one like this - 2mm muddy -- 1 ------ Pig'scot 205 -- nil ... opened it up like a sardine tin :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

So was the Disco and trailer parked up and the Golf rear ended the trailer?
Guessing the hitch became one point concentrating the shock load, but granted I'm surprised the ball didn't shear rather than bend.

I think it said the guy was parked and unloading the trailer over the side that day rather than drop the ramp. Polo came along and hit it. I think it said the D3 would potentially be written off with the damage!

Is Mr chrome mirror guards actually towing it? Job to tell.
This just came up on my feed 🤣 no idea who he is or what the real story is but looks like the fresh out of agri college driver is asking his followers to report a pisstake page.

Only a minor Oops.
Turn around whilst not paying enough attention and verge caught bumper and pulled it off. All the plastic s**t in behind smashed to bits. Think it was already partially gone as my previous employee caught it. Emergency M6 bolt through the wing.
New colour coded bumper to add list of things to do.
Serves me right for rushing about

Don't complain - suggest what's better
Can’t say I’ve managed this before…. View attachment 77138
Unfortunatly I've done that going over a drop off. Luckily had seat belt on so didn't take flying lessons. All you need to do is slowly tip the skip whilst holding the steering central and you come back down no problem. Can't see why they have left him stranded. Given the paramedics are there he has been there some time.
