That was mine mate, i needed 4 stitches to my head but was only in hospital a few hours. No body else was involved. I am very lucky i survived without any serious injury, totally gutted about the car. Will write more when it's been fully investigated

Tell me about it. Trust me i didn't choose to crash it deliberately, and i'm glad no body else was hurt. Loved the car for the short amount of time i had it. There's a query with the tyres that's being looked at but i'll write more when it's all been looked into

In my post above then, has the full set of pictures including the blood shots. What happened to the car mate take it you rolled it?

The car aquaplaned on the outside lane of the M1 and the roads weren't that bad. Spun it 270 degrees across 5 lanes and hit the left crash barrier with the rear right hand side, bounced off, back across all 5 lanes and buried it into the concrete wall.

I spent a few days trying to figure out why this may have happened, as i've been driving 6 years and do thousands of miles and have never had a car just lose control like that. It looks like when the wheels were refitted (as the car did have white ones), the tyres were fitted to the wrong side, so the tread patterns were facing the wrong way. Fine in the dry, bad in the wet.

Just glad no body else was hurt

Loved the car for the short amount of time i had it, but i'll definitely be getting another one. Ticked all the right boxes for me, and did a great job protecting me too. I cut my head on the seat belt mount on the B pillar.

Yeah mate glad no one got seriously hurt as the car looks bad. Its mad to think something like the tyres being put on incorrectly could cause such an accident. Hope the insurance pays out and you can go searching for a new Glanza again.:drive:
