Discussion
Spotted on the A20 on Sunday morning my thoughts go out to the driver hope he's OK.
By the looks of it he lost it on the damp icy roads the light blue car was totally distroyed both the front and rear of the car was missing plus there was fire damage.
When I had my cerb I'd always respect her even in the dry.

It was my car, thanks for the comments - I walked away from it with a graze on my head - owe a lot to the roll cage, without which could have been a lot worse. The boot was totally gone, as was a lot of the front, but from the interior - you would never have known it had been in a smash.
Was accelerating in 3rd gear when it happened after leaving the services - road was cold, maybe a bit damp. Have always respected the power, but Im sure weve all had a bit of wheelspin at times - unfortunately mine happened at about 70mph and the back end went - despite steering into it, it just carried on going sideways.
Have loved driving that car and am totally gutted.

Sorry to hear that news Fishh and seriously glad you are ok. 
Once again the car holds firm.
Only having this discussion today with a chap I met who was about to buy a 4.2.
They are very strong, but the roads were very cold today and tyres cooled very quickly.
I pulled into a shop for about 15 mins and had huge loss of traction when I left in a straight line.

Haha, those days are gone! Mrs GCerbera has hers back.
