Re: feel like crying....
That is insane, glad you got out ok apart from the damaged sustained to your dub. Christ if that had happened at motorway speeds with plenty of traffic around it could be whole other story. Lucky guy tbh

Re: What did you do to your Passat today?
Nothing thought about washing it but then saw the rust on the boot and wing and thought nah can't be bothered as the dirt is hiding it and if I see it anymore it will just me hate the car and VW even more.
