crazy_eyes Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 well to be be honest i wasnt hammering it or driving like a twat, been to a training course for work (in the country) a bit of shitty snow so i was taking it easy, The front end just WENT in a 60 mph limit............straight across the road (luckily no on coming traffic), did a 180 hit a dipped curb and ended up on an embankment in a field. FFS i got out the car front passenger side tyre was totally of the rim, fucking looked at were i was parked if i had hit a higher kurb or landed a bit steeper down i would have ended up rolling.anyway i had no signal on phone as im in the middle of nowhere, fortunatley (no shit) a mate i aint seen for years stoped and then another and we got it sorted, just amazing how things work out, i mean people i aint seen for years turn up when shits gone wrong ......................................anyone got a decent set of wheels and tyres to sell as my CE28n's need a refurb Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Addymk2 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 My mate did the same thing last year, hit diesel in his Cooper S, slid into a field and stopped relativeley unharmed. Got out and an Escort followed him into the field and wrote the car off. Was kinda funny. Good luck getting it sorted! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Turbo Goose Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) I did nearly the same thing but I WAS driving on the limit. Come round a blind corner and some plank was parked basically in the road with a caravan so wanged it out the way to 180 myself over a curb and through a field (Yey barbed wire fencing) Lesson learned now, drive my starlet with respect (most of the time) Shame about your wheels, mine got buckled Edited February 6, 2013 by Haresign Quote Link to post Share on other sites
