Crashed the Clio

[jack_kemp]

You oversteered and still managed to hit the front of your car into his door?

 

[Skott_Dci]

Let him smash you up for the crack :bump:

If the doyle didnt ring the insurance straight away when he seen how bad the damage was, and like some one on here said you have to have it reported within (24hrs?). Delete his number.....

 

[HartZ]

Oh dear thats not good mate

 

[gti6steve]

hes got nankangs on the front so to me sounds like understeer. especially if the road was wet/slippy.

i will second that those tyres are dog poo proper

 

[Munson]

So who won?

 

[theduck]

Clearly this was understeer not oversteer. As for not driving too fast, how else do you suggest you lost control if not driving too fast for the circumstances?

 

[word_easy]

Over steering a Clio at 15mph lol clown.

I don't see why people can't stand up and say "look guys, I'm a r****d, I spanked my car in to another car going round a bend too fast, s**t happens, I'll try not to do it again. I have learnt the hard way".

Or if you can't tell the truth, don't bother posting.

Mace -

Pic please to recap on thread...

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Oversteer is when the back steps out meaning the front should normally be on intended path... understeer is when the front steps out and [basically] you don't make the turn as tight as intended.

Now, unless that's a LHD car, and you're in Europe, I'm still not seeing the full picture of the situation.

Anyone else on my wavelength...?

Oh hai !

I left Swansea (is it) in 2007. Was not me Officer. Honest.

It was a drunk guy pulling out of a side street in a plastic pig....

IIRC he told the police I was doing 80mph across the high street and hit him sideways hahahaaaa!!

Makes perfect sense now

 

[mace¬]

Sounds weird and highly unlikely but I found it on Google Street View!

 

[Gray]

FLOL!!!!

 

[skiddusmarkus]

Mace you need to add in another (100% accurate) picture of the 360 spin caused by the oversteer which still enabled him to hit the car with his o/s front.

17" castors on the back?

 

[Addicted]

man i don't get why people post their crash info and end up telling fibs
do people not learn?

 

[Goodj]

Mace for official CS illustrator!

Photoshop can GTFO! Google Street view and iPhone 5 FTW!

Just noticeed the "Similar thread" box below, can we set-up a sticky thread of "I destroyed another clio" instead, it'll cut down on what are, when all said and done, just another strain of repost

 

[Nicky Thomas]

Tidied the car up a bit for now until I can get a new wing and bumper..

Why do people assume I am making up lies on here? It was a genuine mistake on my half I am not 100% entirely sure what happened but all I know is I dropped in to second gear while I was steering and hit the kerb on a sharp bend and tried to correct it and ended up hitting this guys car on a narrow road, first mistake for everything decided to go down the insurance route though because there is apparently over £1700 worth of damage to his car plus he needs a hire car while his is in for the repairs so cheaper to just get insurance raped.

 

[Goodj]

I dont remember reading about the kerb bit

I dont remember reading about the kerb bit

Looking back at it I didn't really type it up correctly, been a really rough few days..

 

[Revels]

Everyone makes mistakes. You're not dead.

Onwards and upwards!

 

[mace¬]

Never denied your Mrs is ginger either.....

 

[Christopher]

How was that oversteer? Just curious.

 

[tommys]

£1700 worth of damage?

I thought you said you had just hit his front door? What else is he claiming is wrong with it?

 

[Matt W]

Bet he claims for 'whiplash'. The c**t.

 

[Nicky Thomas]

Lol my mrs isn't ginger and they said the door frame needs repairs, plus labour, parts, and a whole respray of his drivers side because apparantley it is all marked
