When I was about 13 or 14 my school buddy Peter took me for a ride in his brothers MK1 Cortina GT (has a Lotus engine). He was doing quite well for a 13 or 14 year old but oversteer got the better of him and we were traveling fast towards the curb. The car mounted the curb - we were lucky it didn't roll when it hit the curb, it shot over the footpath, wiped out about 12 rose bushes, slid across a lawn and stopped between a tall wooden fence and a house. The car was fine but the fence was about 6 inches in front of the front bumper and the back bumper was about the same from the house so there is no way we could get the car out. Not knowing what to do we ran home to Peters place. Ummm, the police were there about 10 minutes later

to cut a long story short the car had to be towed out sideways and we got let off if we bought the lady 12 new rose bushes LOL.
