Me and the missus were driving home at about 11ish from the parent in law to be's, and I saw some headlights heading towards us in the distance around the next bend on this 2 lane B road. Then as the lights came around the corner, we suddenly realised that the car was heading straight towards us on our side of the road - we were both doing about 40-50mph. I stood on the brakes and managed to pull the car halfway up the grass verge/hedge, whilst the other car still came up the road, just beeping at us (!) , but he just managed to swerve far enough back onto his side of the road within about 2 feet of hitting us head on!!!

I looked in the mirror to see the bloke stopped up the road but as i got out to find out what he was playing at , he pissed off up the road before i got to him. And it was then that I noticed that the car had foreign plates!!!

The fooker had the gaul to beep at me FFS I just thank fook the ST has excellent brakes, and he was bloody lucky me or the missus didn't get hold of him - we were fuming

So how was your trip to France?

Seriously, though you are right you're both lucky to be alive. Good brakes and good reactions to thank by the sounds of it.

- No think it was a new type corsa ? Dawn would have murdered the german (I think) if I had not been so shaken up, and had chased after him properly.

Fooking shit us right up. Would defo been collision if the brakes weren't so good. - Its daft really that insurance companies think bigger brakes are bad Where lucky also that the sloping verge was there, and not a solid wall/hedge - dread to think.
