Another 306 off the road. - Josh1994 - 24-08-2014
So I coming home from work this morning through Hackney and saw this, looks like it had hit into the black car and rolled to a stop, this is defo a write off, another 306 off the road, don't know what happened to the driver, if someone had died they would of taken the car as the other day I was on the A2 going to London and there was a dead body in a car which had crashed it was waiting for a recovery truck was being taken away, I could tell someone died as they had covered the car.. got me scared..

On the plus side it looks like it hit a Prius.... Soo not all bad

Lol! I'm sure this one won't be missed, doesn't look anything special
RE: Another 306 off the road. - Josh1994 - 24-08-2014
phase 2 with the d lights lol, yeah nothing special as I see some 306's in London which is in a right state, (big dents, paint coming off, engine making noises doesn't sound like any mods etc).. I feel sorry for the two other cars he had hit, one is a 2013 car and the other is a Astra 2001 they must be pissed..

Vivant spec, so either a 1.6 or XUD basic ph2 iirc...definitely nothing special.
Interesting landing though...I do wonder how they end up like that, considering the roof is the lightest part of the whole car.
RE: Another 306 off the road. - Josh1994 - 24-08-2014
Exactly what I was thinking, looks like it was either moved of the road and put on the pathway but they would of took the car away instead of dumping It there, also I don't know how the roof didn't cave in as you said they are the lightest thing.. lol
RE: Another 306 off the road. - Toms306 - 24-08-2014
They are designed not to cave in, the windscreen and pillars are pretty solid to protect the driver. I just don't see how they get stuck there with the momentum though lol, even all the weight of the engine/drivetrain is towards the bottom so should be really top heavy like that. Its not uncommon for them to end up on the roof though, particularly with rolly comfort suspension lol.

He/she must of been speeding on the long road and lost control hit into the two other cars and then rolled it at a high speed, or someone must of cut them up.
RE: Another 306 off the road. - Dum-Dum - 24-08-2014
Nah youd be surprised at how slow a speed some people manage to roll a car. The fact the top of the a pillar hasnt been crushed suggests its very slow speed.
RE: Another 306 off the road. - Josh1994 - 24-08-2014
Bloody hell i didnt even know you could roll a car at a slow speed..

Yeah its usually more of a fluke than anything but catching something (or being hit by something) with the unweighted side of the car as your turning.
I saw a car that had been flipped reversing out a driveway with the help of a car that really couldn't of been doing any more than 30.
