Went for a good drive over the cairn-o-mount over to banchory then the south deeside road to aberdeen. Didnt quiet make it tho Came round a right hand bend hit with 4x4 headlights coming towards me then the next second im lookin out my drivers door windows lookin at it coming rite at me. The great news for you all is even with sport mode on the esp kicked in very quickly and corrected me perfectly but due to road width i touch verg and took off, dropped bout 15ft down into a field then finally came to a stop bout 100+ yards away in a pile of little tress and against the fence of a nearby house.
Sat for about 2 minutes just takin huge big breaths thinkn holy sh*t im ok everything works, my legs arms everything....phew! Checked my mate and he was still sitting in exactly the same place with his legs still crossed. OMG!!
When corrected by the toys and wasnt hitting 4x4 i thought for a split second this thing is unbelievable its good at everything and really does have smart elecs to sort you out then airborn lookin at a telegraph pole out windscreen, how we missed it i dont know cos lets face the steering dont work too good in the air, then hit the deck and spend what felt like a life time thinkn ok what is going to stop us and how hard is it going to be? Certainly gets the heart rate up then a little bumpin about and we was stopped. Crazy!
Bit confused and it was dark so not too sure but think she is dead could be wrong but surley you cant jump in air drop down 15ft then land in trees and still have it fixed.
Apart from the head thoughts goin on during it i must say the seat remained as comfy as normal during the entire thing and to be perfectly honest never really felt to much or get thrown bout cos the seats hold you so well.
Friday the 13th at 23:52, unreal, 8 minutes left and of course why did this happen, where we lost it we hit a 3-4" deep mud trail where loggin trucks were crossing from field to woods. FCKRS!!! Will tell my insurance and ask them to find out who doing the work and try to claim off them, cops saw the mud and never asked mush more as it was obvious what caused it, then more police turned up and spend some time cleaning the mud away, think there was 4 police cars and one ambulance by the end of it, at least it cleaned and not catch someone else out. All the emergencies where called out cos the 4x4 and two cars behind him thought we was proper fckd but just sat in car few minutes get head together.
Well well got a run home in the T5 traffic car via the backroads which was fun and by the way that thing shifts, no he wasnt going for it but that thing has some go bout it made me forget bout what just happened for a minute.
Anyway stood in hot shower to save on stiffness tomorrow while i sort out the insurance and see how the hell they are going to get it out.
The main thing both perfectly ok although struggling to get our heads round it and how comfy we remained throughout. Well done vauxhall, cant stop praisin it and it even crashed well and lands on its wheels.
still trying to get ma head round this, unreal.... just thought tho, if its written off which i hope it is i get a new one but will have to go through the waiting game again...nitemare!
Learned somthing and got away with it without a scratch, no matter how good teh vxr is with its almost magical grip hit mud or ice or anything really and your aff! mmm
