Who said they only hit America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fmd lucky someone hasn't been killedI got caught on the road near Flemington race course when the hail hit. I can't believe my car didn't get dented, I was literally sitting, waiting for the windows to smash... the sound of that hail hitting the car was unforgettable. I was thinking exactly what you said revhead, someone is going to lose their life in this... I think as a whole, the City got away with it pretty clean.

Sleeper6T Member 356 Member For: 16y 4m 1d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 08/03/10 12:08 AM Share Posted 08/03/10 12:08 AM Had just been to Costco and lookin at a new car right around the corner and not an hour after leavin docklands heard it was a river torrent. Coming down Canterbury road with the gf and we couldnt see 3 cars ahead of us, hail smashin the car the kids loved it but all I was thinking about was my freakin duco !! Coming down a couple of the hilly parts of Canterbury road through mitcham ringwood heathmont area aqua planned a couple times, cars going passed in both left and right lanes went through what I could only describe as something from a river crossing sending sheets of water over the car completely covering the windscreen and our vision, seeing sprays of water shooting out the sides from the wheels, as I dont have any mud flaps was the most amout of rain I have seen in ages. I guess the phantom has some tuff duco cos for how much was pounding down on the car I didnt suffer any damage, which when you're trying to sell is the last thing you need.
