Think I've f*cked something. After going to see poodle after I finished work I was on the motorway home (4lanes, I'm in third) when I heard a clunk, then another clunk, steerin wheel starts going mad and I can't control it, I throw it across the two lanes and bin into the hard shoulder. Nearly taking out several cars. Manage to slow it down from 80 and crawl into the services, that were half mile down the motorway. Jack the front end up and the wheel falls off. No bolts to be undone :o turns out 3 off the wheel bolts snapped simultaneously and the last one snapped as I got in the car park. Bad thing is these were expensive bolts. Don't know if they were over torqued or what. So anyway the damage. Luckily my wing is fine, but the back of the wheel is mashed, and my coilover has taken a beating, from what I can see the coilover could prossibly be surface damage and not structural. The wheel is mashed looks like it might need a bead of welding to ensure it holds air.

So been an eventfull evening

Wheel bolts were very decent. Brand spankers. Will be using the ones curt gave me next as I know they are safe.

Yeah I'm glad that it didn't decide to do a runner at 80. All I could think of while was happening was shit, I've just repainted the car hahahah.

Exactly the same happened to me, except there was no hard shoulder for me to pull over to! Came off at about 20mph instead of the 80 I was at a little down the road..

*NODS* if you can afford a set of those then chances are that you aren't going to be putting them on, or driving, a 306 lmao
