Coming back from work in the early hours of this morning, was probably doing the speed limit if a little over, tired and you know how you get numb in the mind after a 12 hour shift and tired, well ive recently moved and theres this stupid fookin bend in the middle of a long stretch of road, all of a sudden the road just snaps left, then right again, anyhow arse end flew out, got it back, then the front dived the other way, then the arse again, i thought ive lost this, front went for a second time then it really snapped out on the back end, hit the grass verge and flung the car up in the air at the back then bounced down again, rear passenger tyre popped off the rim.. I was lucky i think !

Car does seem very boat like on the handling, like you can shake the steering wheel when in a straight line a little left to right and it doesnt bother it, and also when going round bends it seems there is resistance when turning right? Like the wheel is fighting to go back left, but when turning left, its really light and easy?

Its an mk3 mondeo.early one.

 

Aren't these prone to issues with the rear subframe bushes? Something along those lines iirc.

 

Yep, i changed mine for some poly ones. Transformed the feel of the back end. Sounds like you were very lucky mate.
