I find that when the doors aren't shut properly you get a totally different perspective on the look of the motor, this car obviously needs a good T-Cut to say the least |

Ha ha. It was not an accident from parking the car. The story about crap driver showing off is more the fact about how it happend. The owner of this car had a figth with his girlfriend. The driver was speeding up to 175kmh and the car didnt stick to the surface of the road. The car was rotating out to the bush. No peoples or animals was harmed or hurt in this stunt

So what happened, you slid and the tail flicked out the front end clipped the low wall, dug in and flipped the car. I'm I close.

Spot on on nearly every guess there! Happened in North Wales, had been -7C overnight but the sun had come out and had melted 'nearly' everything. I must have hit a patch of ice on that slight bend, because I lost the back end, overcompensated a couple of times, hit the wall sideways and it went over 1 and a half times! Engine revved through the roof and slowly seized whilst I opened the door and crawled out through the diesel shower. Nothing but a cut on my hand from broken glass. Thankfully I was the only one in the car. And because of that, I now have a 190. I'm confident if I end up rolling this it will be equally as solid and safe

Well at least you came to no serious harm and that's the important thing plus you get to drive a 190 now.

Yeah, no harm, the car was about due for the scrapper anyway, and now I have a good story (in hindsight) with accompanying pictures. |
