believe it or not these cars are VERY tail happy and it's possible that this one got out of hand. when it rains and the roads are slippery you'll usually find most surfs & vigos in 4x4 mode.

Thank you for sharing that important comment, Storm. It will be beneficial for people driving Surfs or Vigos on a rainy day.

^long time no see, hope you are well

@all
during the last rains (a few days back) i had to stick my surf in 4x4 since the roads are not too good for a RWD without traction control. always better to slow down a little and be safe when the road conditions are not perfect.

^^^ LSD helps too if no T. control otherwise 4x4 is the only option.

Surf is really a wild ride, if you mess with her she will drive U crazy.

As pointed out by @Storm, Surf is tail happy ride. A bit of more foot pressure on the throttle, especially on the wet road/surface it will shake U up. My advise to all Surf or and tail happy ride owners/drivers is to engage 4X4 on a slippery or wet road conditions. And be careful on U turns.

or may be the driver was a lunatic

This is the 2nd bad Surf crash I have see in a month's time. The 1st one ended up leavening her Digital Speedo Meter and the 4 Spoke Steering Wheel on my Surf. That surf was totaled.

As it was 2001 Surf so I upgraded my 97 Surf Speedo Meter from analog to Digital and from 2 spoke to 4 spoke steering wheel.

How do i know this??? well i was on the signal. location= Ghazi Road Traffic Signal, Lahore.
