He didnt lose is as such iirc, its because of medication i think.
Yep. Due to his head hitting the C pillar at about 40mph.... He made a massive dint in the C pillar

I came to this thread expecting to see a "I got my license back after a driving ban for drinking" or something like that, iv'e seen a few of those recently on other forums.
Glad you're ok though, that pic of that crashed car is unreal, took a while for me to work out which end was which!
And im glad you're not scread to drive either! I had a small accident in my old corsa and ended up bieng shit scared of driving when I finally got back behind the wheel. Good to see you're not as complaicent as I was!

My god, I never realised you'd done the car over that badly.
Also, what's the C pillar?

Didn't doctors say that the failure kind of saved you though?! 
I've now scrapped the Zetec S idea and want a 1.3
