    Erm, I got a bit excitable when negotiating a roundabout and forgot about the dip half way round, when I reached the peak again I went very airborne.

    Ended shiny side down in a farmers field.

    I find it amazing how high these corsas can get, the one in the op went straight for the first floor.

    Have the drivers been putting red bull in their filler caps? Lol.

    haha, what was your total pain?

    I was stuck upside down so was restrained by the seatbelt so just a bit of bruising really, it was more financially painful than anything else.

    There was someone sitting in the passenger seat at the time and they quite rightly sued me.

    Exactly mate, we were all young and stupid once.

    One positive thing I took from it is that I now understand the dynamics of car handling.

    that is a lesson worth learning! also you learned the corsa is not very good :p

    To be honest I had another 2 after that, one of which was my insurance payout from this crash and the other was a 1.8 SRI.

    Safe to say after that I moved on to much bigger and better things
