wife + fronty + wet =

close call.............

and from another angle,

I told her that the fronty in the wet can be a handful, she came around the bend in the wet ( and maybe mud ) back end got tail happy, 180 degrees spin and a stop there !!! Needless to say she's banned and to stick to the zafira

Good job she's OK mate, hitting that tree could have been a bit different, I've had a few close one's in my time, I think we all have if you drive :thumbup:

Glad she is ok Matey that :shock:

was close

Yeah she rang me in absolute panic, the boy however found it all amusing ( good old kids ) no one hurt so we can laugh it off now. I think she just wanted to take it off road in the woods lol

If she wanted to go off roading in some woods all she had to do bring to a SE event.

Glad everyone is OK buddy.

Glad she is ok mate that was close.

Thanks Guys

she is refusing point blank to drive it again which is a shame.

Ive heard of tree hugging but I think that was taking it abit to far. :lol:

Seriously,Im glad everyone is ok,that was a close one though. :oh yer:

Glad all ok! Suprised me how easy they are to get the tail end out in the wet! Only happened unexpectedly the once (in the wet) felt it straight away and caught it, would love to try one on a skid pan!

I think the Fronties are to tail happy in wet conditions but I love getting the tail out in the wet sometimes. :lol:

my 2.4 was tail happy with kumo tyres so i changed them for range runners an it cured the problem :drink:

John,its Michelin tyres on my 2.4. :lol:

what sort an tread pattern

as some folk swear by khumo's yet on a wet road it was lethal i was going round a R/B broadside at 15mph
a week later with different tyres same R/B 35-40mph :drink:

Well, looks like the MRs had quite a shock. Glad everyone's okay though...

Dave, 'tis amazing how much difference a brand of tyre can make. I never felt comfortable with my first 2.2 which had Michelin tyres on, yet the Bus has BFG muds, and I have really got to go some to get the tail to slide.
