I lost control of a Ford Fiesta 3yrs ago which belonged 2 my father in law, only borrowed it 2 get 2 wrk that day because my Pug GTI I had at the time was in the garage 2 have a new steering rack fitted. Anyway just went round a corner which is a tight bend following other cars on a 30mph limit nxt minute the car had control of me, it was either a blow out or the steering rack went very odd considering that my car was in the garage having that done at the time. I ended up on the opposite side of the road with a oncoming Ford KA smacked straight into it then into a wall. I was very shaken & very lucky, I did damage to my sturnum which was caused by the seatbelt. Father in law gave me permission even though I was only covered 3rd party so I lost his car, but like he says cars r only metal as long as u were ok - I even lost 2yrs no claims - I know how u would have felt shakes the hell out of u, still do not drive that road today I just get the bus to wrk now. U Could always get another Starlet & have a full rollcage in it???
