unbelievably gutted, why is it something always happens when you have no money whatsoever?

came out this house today to find what appears to be a lovely crack on my windscreen coming up from the scuttle panel about 2inches and then going off diagonal....couldnt see any impact marks where perhaps some 10 year old ned scum has chucked a stone at it...is it possible it could be some sort of stress crack?

is it basically needin replaced? sorry for the shit pics




cheers

That will fail MOT if its not replaced.

The new windscreen will have the clip for the mirror, they will just slide the old one on.
