Defo kill me. Been round that corner hundreds of times, today, it decides to completely lose the rear end, go sideways along the road (nearly rolling), before trying to spit me off the road backwards. Impressive skidmarks all round!

Christo, I just don't think you're ready for your own motorised transport. Have you considered a bus pass?  :)

Hey Christo i dont think the 106 even qualifies as having a back end it is that foccin small.




Maybe extreme loading has knackered its suspension.........carried any heavy stuff lately? :pokefun .




That being said...i did the same when i was a youth...in my Nova :o [size=78%]......fully loaded with my mates & being too cocky......braking too late before corners in these little shit heaps can make the arse light.....& any bumps can pogo it up & make it doubly light.[/size]
[/size]
[/size][size=78%]Be careful dude coz i wouldnt wanna crash in a Nova......& a Nova is like a tank compared to a 106....actually have you considered a tank[/size] :b
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike

It has a side - as it went sideways down t' road!  :eek

The handling on it's been pretty decent of late, hence my surprise.

No, but as it went sideways, I hit the clutch - I didn't want iot going in a field!! As the car came to a halt, I found my foot was still locked on the accelerator, revving away! I definitely had the foot off the clutch when the arse kicked out, as I was trying to apply corrective steering.
