The Irish Mitsubishi FTO Owners Club

As some of you know, I swapped the FTO for a Honda. Well I swapped the Honda for a 94 Celica.

Was up in Dub Tuesday night, and on the way back I managed to run off the road into the bushes/wall, roads were apparently icy..!. Fire dept had to cut the wife out. She's still in Tallagh hospital with a broken wrist and a fractured spine. She will be alright though. I'm covered in bruises and a few cuts to my forehead, but otherwise OK. Only had the car 3 days...Ah well $hit happens..!

Know anyone interested in a black gen 6 Celica, recent full convertible conversion. Front end needs straightening out. Free to a good home..??

crap mate, hope full recoveries happen

I'm interested, how bad is the front end? Photies? I call first refusal !

Wow... Tough break! Hope you'll both be ok. Those FTOs are much safer... you should get one

My brother-in-law is going up there this aft, told him to take pictures.. Have to see what he comes back with... Not sure I really want to see it though..

Jees, sounds like a bad one. Fcek the car, glad ye guys are aren't more seriously hurt!

Serious stuff, sounds like your missus took the brunt of it, hopefully she'll be OK.

Bad luck my man. Hope all works out well and that recovery is swift.

What's the latest word on the missus? Any idea on recovery time?

Oy..! Less of the "bleedin". Carry on with the "young" bit though, I like that..

Sorry to hear about that Gfalls.
Hope both of you have a quick recovery

Sorry to hear that G Hope ye both make a quick recovery and that she is back home with you soon

Karma lol

How are ye now?

Update:

Maria is still in Tallagh hospital. They are going to operate on her wrist Monday or Tuesday. She'll be in a body cast for a couple of months for her back. Apart from that, she's in good spirits.

The cuts on my forehead are healing nicely, and I'll soon be back to my usual gorgeous self...

Thanks for all your kind words, much appreciated.

Oh...and the car's still a right off..

sorry to hear bout the crash g! Hope your wife recovers well! Don't think you'll ever get her into another celica though! You'll have to get an fto again!

Where is the Celica. If I plan to take it it might be handy to know where it is.

Are you serious??? Its a right off.. http://s632.photobucket.com/albums/uu45 ... %20celica/ Its in Dennings garage in Tallagh if you want to have a closer look.

Hmmm, it's a little more damaged than I thought. Not even worth looking at now.

Sh1te! - you had to be cut out of the car?

What were you thinking driving going from an FTO to a Celica anyway?

jesus man, hope the misses is alright. who cares about the car... Sounds like a nasty bang, glad it wasnt worse.
