I totalled mine on the M1 going north by Scratchwood Services
Full 360 and backwards into the crash barriers.
In rush hour traffic.
Walked away with only mild whiplash. I owe my life to that car.

Very true,
The rear end was nearly 2 foot shorter afterwards, and the wheels completely shunted, but I was still able to drive it into the services.
:'( My trusty steed.

Thank you, mate.
Having a bit of a moment here, apologies.
I'll never forget the view through the windscreen of three lanes of oncoming traffic. Jesus, that was fucking scary.
