So, last night I lent my Golf to my dad because we were working on his Passat with a friend of mine. We got the Passat fixed last night and I was supposed to bring it to work where my dad would pick it up and bring me my car.
Well, this morning my dad calls me and tells me he had driven my precious into a snowy ditch! Apparently the road had been plowed too wide and the edge had given in. Despite my car being a 4Motion it had to be towed out. Needless to say I was gutted! And just a few days ago my engine preheater took a dump and I had to get a new one for a 140EUR.
The good news is that it seems that the only part broken is my center grille as the ditch was filled with powdery snow. I'm gonna go wash the car later today and check for any damage to the undercarriage and the AC condenser. The paintwork, bumper, wheels, etc. seem fine.
