     @Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com That day it rained for the first time in 3 weeks, so all the rubber and oil on the asphalt becomes extremely slippery before rain finally takes it away. Often called a "first flush".
     
     I wasn't fully aware of the weather conditions and in combination with driving normally (but not cautiously) into this specific corner that also has significant off-camber (pictured) the rear wheels lost traction and I slid into a tree. You can see by the way that my front wheels are parked that I tried countersteering but it didn't work.
     
     Another thing worth noting is that I wasn't the first car that lost traction in this corner that morning. A bystander said they saw another driver also slide and hit the curb a few minutes before I arrived.

     @bronze@pl.kitsunemimi.club It was totaled. The car was worth 1k (that's what I paid for it). There is no way a bodyshop could fix that amount of damage for less than 1000 euro.
     
     I sold the car to the junkyard for 150 euro cash and I also got to keep my nearly brand new Toyo tires (worth >600 euro) and the radio I installed (worth 100 euro)

     @SuperDicq hey you can't park there!
     are you gonna get a body shop to straighten it out or just sell the car?

     @bronze@pl.kitsunemimi.club Luckily my Mazda MX5 uses the exact same tire size (195/50R15), so I have a spare set of tires now.

     @RedTechEngineer@snac.lowpassfilter.link @mangeurdenuage@shitposter.world Well my car died and is in car heaven now together with my previous shitboxes.
     
     I'm kinda sad about that because I do think first gen Ford Puma's are very rare cars nowadays and it is impossible to buy a replacement for (literally zero available in my local used market).
     
     Also I have the "gets emotionally attached to objects" autism so it does feel kinda like your pet just died or something.
