Binned it! *WARNING DEAD CLIO*

[.Kev.]

Glad you're o.k.

I've had a similar accident though when i was younger, with similar damage walked away ect. I was doing about 70 though.

[.Kev.]

Also it's a 60mph road....and you were doing 30mph? hmmmm.

[GiT]

Because the car lost control and was aquaplaning. Just didin't think at the time, would've been so much different if I hadnt!

No, YOU lost control. Don't blame the deceased! lol

By the way you've explained it - either brake imbalance, too heavy on the brakes, 1 bad tyre or you was messing about trying to Colin McRae it up the road!

2/10 for blaming the car - 9/10 for taking out a friggin sturdy pole lol.

Oh and 30mph my arse!

[asrob910]

Was wondering what th hell caused that! Was down that way the other day! Hope your okay mate!

This was in September so it mustve happend again! Am grand like now mind you had a bump on my head for something like a month!

[asrob910]

A said take guesses on the speed guys! Not putting it up on here haha, thats all am saying bout it haha

Very true! I'll accept that one lol!

Tbh if you hit oil/grease at 60 on a 60 road and it starts to let go, then you touch the brakes,
the end result would pretty much end up like your pictures.

[DominicJeans]

shame! oh well. as long as you're not hurt.

This.

Jackjack how did you know? Was a straightish road, doing a very legal *30mph*, went along the road hit the oil and bobs your uncle, straight into the wall and span down the road and ended up in a hedge. Very lucky to walk away mind, heavily concust (told the copper I hit a badger, he then shown me the whole in the wall) after my airbags failed to go off! The only consolation is that if there was a passenger in the car theirs would've went off.. typical!

You put your speed here?

Logic = fail

[Sam@BTM]

I love these threads, please dont claim on your insurance because its expensive enough as it is.

[Nick172Cup]

Good job!

I like people like you, knocking down them poles equals overtime for me! Lol

[Nicky Thomas]

Accidents happen dude, I had a stupid one my own fault last year luckily only cracked the headlamp and scruffed the bumper on mine, was only a 20mph bump and yet there was £1600 damage to the other car... I am sure the garage milked it though!

At least your okay, a car is a car plenty about!

[theduck]

It's a 60 road and he wont post what speed he was really doing, that means above 60.

[McGherkin]

Those saying it looks pretty wrecked, the design has done its job. All the non essential bits are designed to crumple up and take the force of the hit. Look at the passenger cell and you'll see that it's 99% intact. Good job, as these Clios do.

If he was going at >60, it did a very good job considering.

[warwickstingray]

It appears car control is not a skill you have developed very well. Stay off the bottom of the throttles travel and get some practice off the public highway before you hurt someone if your gonna drive hard. It's extremely difficult to crash a modern car when driving normally. That includes enjoying a b road at legal speeds. If I can get decent safe progress out of a 106 diesel you have no excuse! Glad your ok but seriously sort it the f**k out.

[DannyR]

I'm concerned at how much oil there was on the road to aqua plane on it, must of been puddles of the stuff everywhere, surely you'd notice that?

Clearly doing more than 30 to do that damage too.

[Feirny]

May have hit the wall at 30mph after dropping anchor from 60+.

[Roy Munson]

Impact speed probably about 20mph or so.
