Rolled my 1.2 Clio

Sweet mother and the devil himself! :eek:
You're here to tell the tale at least!

How'd it happen mate?

You sicken me mate.

Only joking :p poor car was a beaut, glad your alright though. You should also stress it wasn't your fault lol.
 
  Clio 1.2 Mk 4
in a nutshell, some bloke coming towards me had his beams on, i went left a lil to dodge his car as i didnt know how close his car was to mine (down a country lane, very dark) as i went right. back end spun right round going backwards towards a ditch at about 50mph

clipped the grass mound as such rolled the car, heading towards the ditch rolled again onto its roof where it sat there all night really....

yeah im fine not a scratch from the accident, i have a small cut like half a inch on my palm from when i went back into the car to get my cd's and what not. Put my hand right in some glass but bersides that nothing at all to me and my passenger!

And also from this accident do you reckon the airbags should ahve gone off?

That sounds insane!

Was the road soaked in oil?
 
  Clio 1.2 Mk 4
nooo but it was like dry/moist if it makes any sence. it had been raining that day so some patches were wet, then some were bone dry

Road was probably greasy from the rain then if the weather had been good before it rained.

I'm surprised too that the airbags didn't deploy :S - none at all?
 
  None :(
My days! From the photo's it seems very impressive you walked away without harm! Fair play to the clio for protecting you ;)

I've never in my life been in a car when its rolled, geeseee that must of been some scary Sh*t! Even more so in the dark where you can't potentially see where your gonna end up after rolling!

Glad you're ok fella. TBH I'm not at all suprised you were unhurt, you had your seatbelt on and as far as I'm concerned you where in one of the best small cars to land on it's roof.

Some ones premium is going up next renewal.

to be honest when i felt the back end coming out i knew it was gona happen, so i just sat there and held onto the wheel. will admit was slightly fun rolling the car. bit like a really exspensive roller coaster like pay £8000 for a 15 second ride lol





and yes my premium will be going up lol


and no the airbags didnt go off not 1 :)

Sounds like how i rolled my Quiksilver, someone with full beams came hooning it round the bend got blinded, then thought s**t that is a very sharp corner, tokyo drifted round the bend and clipped the grass bank, rolled it 3 times.

Hope your alright though mate.

Ouch glad your ok though dude

Been a serious RTC like yours this morning in Dulwich, road closed in both directions, Apparently a soft top VW Golf was driving at nearly a ton, lost control, hit a lamp post, done a 360, rolled onto its roof and killed the driver... I work for TFL and work closely with the Police etc so deal with these sort of things.. Cars a complete mess, Car landed on the drivers side on its roof so as its a soft top the car crushed the driver... Sad times

What's next on the cards then mate?
Welcome to ClioSport too lol - quite a first post you had!

Did the bloke stop that had his full beams on ? What did he say ? What did you say to him ?

At least yours ok though bud, seems serious, many people have died with this sort of accident.
 
  GW Clio 200
As far as i've been told by Blu.. No, the guy didnt stop, he just kept on driving. How could he not have noticed that in his rearview? some people are so oblivious.

Offfft big smash.

I remember my sister rolled my first ever car (with me in it as well!) a MK3 Fiesta 1.1. On the way back from Bourbnemouth when it was snowing. Someone had dumped there car on the side of the road half hanging out with no hazards and she swerved to avoid and we ended up down the hill. That rolled over 3 times. Two in the back had no seat belt. One of them slammed into me and dislocated my shoulder other than that everyone got out and walked away unscathed. That was a crappy 1992 Fiesta! Someone was looking down on us that day.

Glad your ok. It is only metal and can be replaced s**t happens. Surprised the Airbags didnt go off mind.
 
Well if you're going to crash at least make it a proper one eh! lol

Glad your all alright, as said it can be replaced.

thanks everyone for seeing if im all ok :) yeah was a fun way to right off your car, better then the boring way of just clipping some1 hay lol

but yeah to answer you slammed 172, the other bloke just drove off, i dont know how he couldnt have seen in his centre view mirror, red lights, then a flash of white lights then nothing at all! but oh well makes you laugh at how much people really concentrate on the road.

And to answer you tigger, im hoping to either get the new clio (mk5) if the insurance aint to bad, if it is maybe a clio sport mk3/4:p or just a 2nd hand clio (mk4)

but time will tell have to wait for the insurance company to look at my car and say "yes it is a right off" lol could have told them that as i was rolling the car
