SHE BROKE DOWN AT 4PMโ€ฆ AND AT 8:30PM THE CAR WAS STILL THERE! ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐ŸŒ

Imagine your car suddenly becoming completely stuck on a busy roundabout, the wheels refusing to move, while traffic continues flowing around you.

Hours later, this gentleman walked over just to check if the stranded driver was okay. When he heard how long she had been there โ€” and realised the car still hadnโ€™t been recovered โ€” his reaction said it all. ๐Ÿ˜จ

Thatโ€™s when BG Breakdown Recovery arrived. ๐Ÿš›๐Ÿ’จ

What looked like a straightforward recovery quickly became a much bigger situationโ€ฆ

๐ŸŽฅ This video shows only part of the story. The full recovery is coming next.

No matter what country youโ€™re watching from โ€” would you feel safe being stranded here for over 4 hours? ๐Ÿ‘‡๐ŸŒ

๐Ÿšจ PEUGEOT 2008 STRANDED ON A LIVE ROUNDABOUT! ๐Ÿšจ

This Peugeot 2008 automatic had broken down on the Long Eaton Asda roundabout, leaving it stuck in a live lane with traffic passing around it.

When BG Breakdown Recovery received the call, I arrived within 25 minutes. ๐Ÿš›๐Ÿ’จ

This clip only shows what I found when I arrived and me waiting for the customer to return with the spare keys so I could safely start the recovery.

๐Ÿ‘€ This is only the previewโ€ฆ FULL RECOVERY VIDEO COMING TOMORROW!

๐Ÿšจ THIS RECOVERY JOB GOT CRAZIER EVERY MINUTEโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜ณ

We were called to recover an Iveco Daily after the passenger-side wishbone snapped at around 60mph, leaving the van stranded on a dangerous country road.

The driver had already spent 2ยฝ hours in hi-vis warning traffic on the bend after being let down by another recovery company. When we arrived, he was exhausted and stressed โ€” so before anything else, we gave him some water and a Yorkie. ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿซ Sometimes the little things make a massive difference.

Then the chaos continuedโ€ฆ ๐Ÿšœ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Huge tractors squeezing through the recovery scene, a cone knocked over within minutes, and young riders on fast e-bikes coming through โ€” including one frighteningly close encounter while we were working. โš ๏ธ

With the broken suspension leaving the passenger side almost on the floor, this wasnโ€™t a straightforward load. Using our experience, Slippery Jims and a central pull, we safely got the Iveco onto the truck and out of danger. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿš›

From 2ยฝ hours stranded and stressed to finally being safely recovered.

Another job completed by BG Breakdown Recovery โ€” we arrived to stress and left smiles behind. โค๏ธ

Please take care around roadside recovery scenes. Slow down, give workers space and get everyone home safely. ๐Ÿ™

๐Ÿšจ JUST ANOTHER DAY AT BG BREAKDOWN RECOVERYโ€ฆ OR SO WE THOUGHT! ๐Ÿ˜‚

We were called out to Bestwood, Nottingham, to recover a Ford Transit belonging to a lovely couple who run a cleaning business.

Simple recovery, right? Not quite. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Within minutes we had an electric bike flying past โšก, a quad rider doing an unbelievable wheelie, another driver broken down nearby with her husband coming to help โ€” and to top it all off, we ended up at the traffic lights next to a car with an unmistakably strong smell of w**d coming from it! ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ˜‚

You genuinely couldnโ€™t script this shift.

Through all the madness, the Transit was loaded, secured and delivered as planned. BG Breakdown Recovery โ€” getting the job done and keeping you moving. ๐Ÿš›๐Ÿ’ช

Tag someone who wouldnโ€™t believe this happened on ONE recovery! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‡

๐ŸŒ๐Ÿšจ VW Golf R vs a curbโ€ฆ the curb definitely won! ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ’ฅ

We were called to recover this beautiful Golf R after a hard curb impact left the front wheel cracked and seriously damaged. ๐Ÿ›ž๐Ÿ’”

The good news? The rest of the car escaped without a scratch! ๐Ÿ™Œ Considering the impact, this could have ended very differently.

We carefully loaded and secured the Golf R before transporting it safely to a trusted repair shop for new wheels and tires. ๐Ÿš›๐Ÿ’จ

One small mistake can cause BIG damage! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ Would you repair the wheel or replace it? ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿšจ FROM A RAINY A52 RECOVERY TO A 172BHP MICRA WITH AN INCREDIBLE STORYโ€ฆ WHAT A DAY! ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ’จ

This job started on a wet A52 roundabout near Edwalton, where the driver of a 1998 Mazda MX-5 lost traction, spun out and hit the kerb hard enough to badly damage the rear passenger-side alloy. ๐ŸŒง๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ณ

A huge thank you to the police officer who stopped the traffic and created a safe working area for us. That allowed BG Breakdown Recovery to get the MX-5 loaded safely and transported to a local garage for a replacement wheel and tyre. ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ›ป

We thought that would be the end of the storyโ€ฆ we were wrong! ๐Ÿ˜‚

At the garage we met Nottinghamโ€™s answer to Wakey Wines, which gave us a good laugh โ€” and then we came across something that really caught our attention. ๐Ÿ‘€

A seriously quick Nissan Micra producing around 172bhp! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

But the horsepower isnโ€™t what makes this Micra special. Behind the car is an emotional story: the ownerโ€™s son sadly passed away, and his father now drives the car in memory of him, keeping his passion and memory alive. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™

For anyone who loves cars, you know theyโ€™re sometimes much more than metal, engines and horsepower. Some cars carry stories, memories and people with them.

๐Ÿ”Š Make sure you watch until the end and LISTEN to that Micra drive away! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’จ

Another unforgettable day on the road with BG Breakdown Recovery.

20/08/2026

Today at BG Breakdown Recovery, what started as a normal job turned into an encounter we wonโ€™t forget. ๐Ÿ’›

While dropping off, we came across this incredible Nissan Micra K11 โ€” a car many people around Nottingham and Santa Pod may already recognise. ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ”ฅ

At first, it was the car that caught our attention: the bright yellow bodywork, Simpsons artwork under the bonnet and a seriously wild engine setup. Then we heard the story behind it.

The Micra belonged to the ownerโ€™s son, who sadly passed away. His dad now continues to drive the car and take it out, keeping both the car and his sonโ€™s memory alive. โค๏ธ

That completely changed the way we looked at it.

Itโ€™s not simply a fast modified Micra anymore. Every time his dad gets behind the wheel, heโ€™s continuing something his son loved and making sure his story isnโ€™t forgotten.

Cars can be more than metal, engines and horsepower. Sometimes they carry memories. Sometimes they carry a legacy. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ

Massive respect from everyone at BG Breakdown Recovery. ๐Ÿ’›

If you recognise this Micra from Nottingham or Santa Pod, share your memories or photos of it in the comments. ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿšจ WHEN AN ACCIDENT RECOVERY TURNS INTO A FAMILY AFFAIRโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜‚

We got the call at BG Breakdown Recovery to collect a crashed Ford Transit tipper. Sounds like a normal accident recoveryโ€ฆ until we heard the full story. ๐Ÿ‘€

The lady who called us works for her brother โ€” and her other half is the one who crashed the van! ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Safe to say, recovering the Transit might have been the easiest part of this situation! ๐Ÿ˜‚

๐Ÿš› Van loaded
โœ… Recovered safely
๐Ÿ˜ฌ Awkward family conversation pendingโ€ฆ

Imagine having to explain this one to your brother! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‡
