Pimm Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Unfortunately TC can't defy the laws of gravity. If your gunning it and hit a patch of oil/diesel TC ain't gonna do nothing as the oil/diesel is preventing the wheels from grabbing friction on the road...........thats a sorry sight mate True, and I was too close to the kerb to correct the back end before I drove up the kerb, got all 4 wheels off the ground (according to the van driver behind me) then onto the wet grass (no control on that either) and into a tree then spun round 2 times (van driver said 3 times) I am very glad you are ok BUT i would not bother with another Z, just buy the same van that kept up with you that witnessed the accident Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Pleased to see the car held up and you're ok, sorry to see the state of it though. The Zed might not be perfect, but it does what it needs to very well indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maccaman Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Wow!! So glad you are ok. Gives you a good feeling to know the Zed is that strong if, heaven forbid, anybody else is involved in an accident. Hopefully you should be able to pick up a good replacement when the insurance pays out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Hand Luke Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Sorry to hear about this and see the Zed like that - as others have said it shows how strong these cars are. Main thing is you're ok, hope you get the insurance sorted quickly and with minimum fuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Ouch! - glad you walked away unhurt; watch the sore neck, though. It could get a lot worse and you should get it checked out with the GP or hospital in case you need to claim against your insurance later.
