Looks lovely. Watch them wet roads though.....

 

Well done mate that is absolutely lovely, am glad everything worked out in the end for you and you ended up with an even better car she is stunning

Result in the end, they do look nice.

 

Fair play good result on this! You wont be making that mistake with the trophy thats for sure!

Whereabout in mid wales are you? that road looks familiar?

 

Ah thought so, i only live in knighton and regularly venture down to newtown for abit of dolfor common playing

 

they must have had to throw a lot of money at it to get it right again.

I guess for some it will come down to how much you can trust a car that's taken that much damage.

 

Shit mate. Glad you are ok. Don't listen to he haters we have all been there. Who drives a car like this and doesn't go a little too fast now and again. I have certainly had a few close ones since getting my Clio 200 and it's always been because I have been over zealous. Just put it down as a learning experience and very lucky you or nobody else was injured. The Lord was looking on you favourably that day.

 

Looking at it again you must've just lost traction due to the conditions as it wasn't really that sharp a corner. Sheeeeet. It's scary as hell when it just slips away like that.

 

Well it was over 6 months ago so I guess he's got over it, but you make a good point.
