First One:

Driving home from college, traffic lights on a crossroad, mine were on green, car turning right in right lane, im going straight on and a vectra c pulls right across me, i hit his rear quarter spinning him 90 degrees..
turned out it was a courtesy car from my insurance company
Second and last (touch wood):






Pretty much, on my way to work driving down country lanes, corner was a bit slippy/greasy back end slipped out, went sideways, corrected it but i was already on the wrong side on the verge and that put me into the hedge.

it's unbelieveable how different crashes cause different injuries, the one i posted above i recieved no injury what so ever which was very lucky, yet the pug106 gti mine was near in the scrap yard had alot less damage but 3people had died in it, makes you think

Next thing they come out to see me+ my mates car apparently "In pieces" 40m from where they orginally parked it with a "dented front bumper" lmao

My Toyota Starlet SR.
Rolled it on the way to work, and still made it to work (4 hours late )
I bought it as a damaged repairable, hence the red bonnet.

yea, and thats why i dont want a french car. Corsas may be slightly bigger and not quite corner as well, but when it all goes to shit...you dont die, they have some structural integrity!
