This week we have been slow on getting the news out, and regular visitors to the Car Site site may have seen that Car Site have almost gone dark this week as we did not have much time to publish news as regularly as we do.

Car Site What a Week

On Monday the 3rd of December 2012 my wife have been in a car accident and were hospitalized from the 3rd of December 2012 to the 6th of December 2012. On her way to work a BMW collided into her from behind. She was driving a Mercedes-Benz A-Class.

The BMW got some serious damage and the whole of the front of the BMW crashed-in completely. The Mercedes-Benz A-Class did not get damaged that bad and only the Parking distance and the boot and the bumper got damaged.

Toyota Cressida cut in half at Shoprite / Checkers Klerksdorp

On Friday the 7th of December my mother parked her car at Shoprite Checkers in Klerksdorp and a Tree fell on her car. The Toyota Cressida got cut in half by the weight of the tree, this happened inside the parking area of checkers. Although the car is old it were in good running condition and had significant emotional value as it belonged to my grandfather and my mother have placed a lot of value on the car.

Saint Bernard got Epileptic Seizures

Here at Car Site we love animals and have two dogs, a cat, a rabbit and a tortoise as pets. During the time that Ronel spend at hospital I could see that the animals were missing her tremendously. On Thursday before Ronel were released from hospital our Saint Bernard contracted a epileptically seizure. I was at home at the time when it happened and I got the fright of my life when our beloved Saint Bernard got the seizure, I rushed her to the vet and luckily she is also ok.

All this happened last week and made it extremely difficult to get the news out as usual! – They say bad luck and accidents comes in three, hopefully the rest of the year will be blessed for us, without any further accidents and incidents!
