Not looking to upgrade the actual speakers, not into the boy racer look but just want a good stereo for iPod but noticed in argos they give a wattage.

Right, 4 x 50 is the norm, that works out about 20rms each channel.
That will run a normal cars speakers, no problem.

So this morning i crashed the car :( the weather has been real shitty this side of London, and it was a bit greasy on the roads thought id poodle the car to my friends 17 miles away, boy was that a bad move......3 mins down the motorway the back end slipped out, and i couldnt catch it in time, went 180 over 3 lanes of traffic through a fence into a field!

My car is ruined and my ego is badly bruised! :(
 
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that's gotta hurt in your wallet and pride.

Glad that you're okay though mate (?)! More important than a car.

Im fine mate, i missed a tree buy a couple of feet!

Shit man you fucked up.

Tell me about it!

Oh shit! Hope its not a write off D:

In the insurance terms it is, 90% of the parts you cant even get anymore, not to mention the giant gash missing from my roof, but i didnt go through insurance, cars currently sitting in my lockup!

I think i should give up cars now, im very fortunate to walk away with my life today, i wasn't wearing a seatbelt, im so lucky i dont even know how to describe it

Don't give up on cars D:. I'd give it a break then maybe look at something 4WD. You got lucky for sure.
 
oh boy, I was just about to complain about my new shitty winter rims, and then this... Good thing you are ok!

No that's not the answer, its more so the fact i could have died today and have nothing to show for my life other than awesome array of gadgets and cool nerdy shit that means nothing to no one!

I think its time to grow up :(

im peachy man! just a bit shaky
 
Sorry about the car, at least you survived to tell the tale.

My instructor from the bikes (10 years ago), told me he phones all the new people that have passed to offer advice or even further training if they want it, he said only one year out of the 30 plus he has been instructing has somebody not been dead from buying a r1\blade\zx10 etc then getting killed on it.
Worst year 3 had died.

Its also another plus point for electronics, traction, stability control, abs etc.

Anyway don't jump to any conclusion, take some time to think about things before you make a decision, if you want some track training, give me a shout, we can sort it out for next year. :)
 
dddddddddddaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmm .good see your ok .but that looks like a scary ass couple of seconds .you got lucky dude but at least your ok . a car you can replace but life is precious
