... a ditch and hedge that is 
Was in the process of an overtake when some c*nt in a mk iv golf decided to embark upon an overtake also. Left if a second thinking "he'll see me and pull back in"... yeah right.
Locked on, flicked back behind the guy i was overtaking, backend went light, fought it a couple of times and got the right foot down to try and get quattro pull to me out, but i was in 6th at about 35mph by this time and so no grunt
I remember making a concerted effort to miss everything and finally thinking "oh f*ck, im going down", dabbing the brakes and locking the wheel to spin the car and avoid going in to any dry stone walls head first.
Some how i avoided all oncoming traffic in the opposite 2 lanes, skidded backwards, jumping over a gravel drive opening - the only piece of non-dry stone wall for about 1/2 mile - and over some soft grass into a ditch
Needless to say i was a) in shock and b) pretty pissed off. No one stopped, not the **** that pulled out, the guy i was over taking or anyone behind me
The engine was still running smoothly and i shut it off, not knowing what potentially could be damaged, climbed out and took a breather checking i was still intact.
Eventually either an undercover or off duty pulled up and started looking at the situation, calling in the local officers also. Meanwhile i'd already called a mate to get it pulled out.
The bobbies turned up and coned off half the road whilst it was pulled out - and to their amazement with a bit of rear diff lock it pretty much pulled itself out
Long story short, jet washed it down, damaged rear bumper and treser - thats it.
But even so, im more glad that it wasnt the s2

bit of a step up from a scooby/sierra.
Don't let Jess see that!
Thats what Andy said... We'd only had *katy* 48 hours and taken her to a ditch 
If id have done any serious damage it would be.
