just as i have got my car to how i wanted it to look,
this morning on my way to work i went round an s-bend on country road and clipped the grass on the side of the road, as it was wet it sent me onto the grass verge and i had a head on with a big grass mound making the car flip 3 times and landing back on the road

just 20 hours ago at the west mids meet it was in this condition

So sorry too see this mate. Not only is it a terrible thing too happen.........but it was another mint MK1!

unlucky mate but least u weren't hurt

Paul
11th February 2008, 16:54
Gutted for you mate. Know what its like losing a car that you really love. Although yours was much nicer than mine.

Chin up mate, salvage what you can. What i did to keep my mind off things was look for a new car, tried to forget about my old one.

I know everyone has said it, but i'll say it anyway, from looking at them pictures your one lucky fucker to be alive mate.

Everyone has a downer on saxo safety. I know its shit, and probably one of the worst cars for safety. But i think their alright, i crashed into a fence/concrete wall at 30+ and i didnt have a scratch on me, airbag didnt come out either.

Hope this doesnt put you off saxos

Any idea what saved your life? or just luck?

Glad your ok :)

shooorn94
11th February 2008, 19:53
was the cage bolted or welded in? You are so lucky to get out of that one.. did the footwell not crumple up at all? And did the van driver pull over after it happened or did he just funk off?

So glad you're ok mate, at the end of the day its much nicer reading a thread about a car thats crashed rather than no thread at all :y:

debs123
11th February 2008, 19:58
omg what an eye opener. so glad your ok!!!
did you hear about that crash in Burnley someone died i heard. your so lucky to be telling us your terible news. just try and think of it as a new start as hard as it may be.:hug:

the van driver wud never know it happened unless he heard it.


how the hell? looked stush as well. was you speeding?

was doing about 45mph so no, the grass verge had massive rock in it, where most of the damage came from and the rolling

gutted mate, and i dint even get to see it!

where abouts was this s bend ?

in rugby, lawford heath


There is so many fucking crashes lately on these forums, it amazes me. How the hell did u manage to clip the grass? It aint hard to avoid it

because when someones cutting a corner and about to hit me my first thoughts are i dont want to have a head on at 45mph with a van, i avoided one crash and caused myself another
what would you have done mr perfect?
