driving to work this morning in my 944 minding my own business and just relaxing listening to the radio when all of a sudden the back end sinks and the rear locks up first thing i do is look into the mirror to see the car behind me try to do it doggystyle with me, how that guy missed me i have no idea as i honestly braced myself for 1 big fcukoff shunt (woulda been another pic for the smashed car thread tho ) anyway must have been a mix of me pulling in straight away and that guy haveing lightning quick reactions as he had no warning i was about to slam to a stop, mostly due to his reaction methinks !!
had the rac out already once just for the guy to tell me he cant move it and it needs a low loader (sorry but i did bloody tell the woman on the phone the whole back end is locked up and wont move )
so now im sitting waiting yet again for the rac
rant over

cars now been picked up and dropped off, wheels were locked solid as she was getting dragged on the ramp but when we started taking her back down again the wheels were free so it must have unjamed itself in transit, hopeing its just the rear brakes as the handbrake was stuck solid to the floor when it locked up and now it moves about an half inch
im a lot happier now as i was thinking it was the gearbox 
iv been thinking about getting rid of it and the car must have picked up on the vibes
