Nothing wrong with it from the back, lol. Slow rolls do a lot of damage then.

I recognise that corner lol....it does tighten up a little, someone died on the corner only a couple of months ago so look on the bright side!

Renaults have a very good [SIZE=-1]EuroNCAP safety rating fortunately. How tall are ya if i may ask? Started worrying a wee bit because im 6'4 and my fist barely fits between the roof and the top of my head when i'm driving. Is the 197 a lot bigger on the inside than a ph-quickie?

Christ, proper job! Airbag did'nt go off though.....

Chin up fella, take it as a learning curve!
 
  Shhh
Glad your ok, could of been reading on here that you died in it.

Just one of them things, go back and inspect the corner.

I think either mud, or diesel on the bend.. had it too many times in the wet as a biker..

Doesnt help with lift off either, as all the weight goes to the front, no force on rear end away you go..

Yer im glad im ok, still cant believe its happened. I'm 6ft 1 and im not really sure what i hit my head on was too busy thinking "f*ck" at the time, couldnt believe it when it rolled, just thought i was going to be stuck on someones wall looking like a complete tool, and i cut my arm when i was climbing out of the car lol.
Yer the people said they have to have that wall rebuild once a month, first thing i did when the man came out was apologise and moved all the bricks to one side the next day :).

Glad you're ok dude. Cars can be replaced, it's just a machine at the end of the day and everyone makes mistakes.

like a d*ck i had 2 new goodyear eagle f1's on the front and some generic on the back that was due to replace :/ ALWAYS HAVE 4 TYRES OF THE SAME BRAND!

edit:-

ALWAYS TAKE CORNERS AT A REASONABLE SPEED...;)

a bad workman always blames his tools...:D

Exactly what I was thinking. I very much doubt it was the tyres that were to blame. Glad you are okay though, I've read a few reports recently about bad crashes in dodgy weather and the outcome has been worse.

Glad you're unhurt.

Well done for admitting that you cause it as you were in a hurry.

9 out of 10 people on here if they did the same thing would normally claim "the car just spun, I don't know why, I wasn't going to fast or anything".

Being critical of your own driving is the only way to learn and improve, and to put it bluntly - you just learnt a HUGE f***ing lesson there!

Well said Mark, if you never make a mistake, you'll never improve!

unlucky mate, as said though, glad ur ok, thats the main thing.

that looks like it was a real tidy example too.

I'd say it was a classic case of Lobsided Furry Dice that caused that accident. Buggers the left:right weight ratio no end and causes the rear to swing like a pendulum, far worse than a 911 Turbo on slicks in the wet......;)

At least you've learned from your mistake mate and no one else was hurt, not like some of the tools on here, the classics like the car just spun out FOR NO REASON went through a wall rolled 7 times but i was only going 30 mph honest!!!!
