Bugger! I never did see them in this size!

Attracting title isn't?
So what I'm talking about! I mentoined a few posts ago that I finally did got my new car. Well here it is.My Ford Mondeo Titanium WagonSo where r we now? The topic still doesn't cover the tittle or does it? Now there are much bigger cars than this one. For sure.
Yesterday evening driving home from work, the little disaster happened. It was dark within minutes and this at 6.30 pm in the evening during summer. Few minutes later the hail started to poor down. If have never seen so big and violent hails in my life before. As a result, more than 100 dents in the hood, same for the roof, same for 1 door, etc...
My biggest worry (car wise that is) is that the insurance company belonging to the lease agancy will write a one week old car off, like they would do in Germany. In dutch: declare it "per total". In English total loss.

So here are the hails:
The hails that destroyed my MondeoThe hails which destroyed my Mondeo

So indeed: BUGGER.

Good luck at the table,

Hope they don't total it. I know when I was in germany they totaled one of my cars for less damage then that.

Glad to see you back blogging mate, I knew you couldn't keep away!

Is that a Focus or Mondeo estate?

My dad went to Florida on business about 12 years ago and took some photos of hail that were the size of golf balls! I can only imagine the pain if you were outside when they fell!

It is a mondeo estate! Or should I rephrase that to was.
