well, it might be German, but the engine is in the wrong end - so what does he expect?

How on earth didn't he manage to catch the first slide?

It wasn't exactly a big slide or going very fast. 

Poor driving if he over corrected like that to make it go more in the other direction.

A classic example of more money than ability behind the wheel..... nothing wrong with expensive Beetles.........

My excuse when this happened to me in the M3 as I accelerated away from a standstill at traffic lights left through a roundabout was that I was on the way to the garage to get the LSD sorted - when it locked up!

(p.s. the oil was like treacle when we 'spooned' it out)

I blame the nut behind the steering wheel. When you have that much weight and power over the back wheels in the wet, you don't keep dabbing the throttle with a crowd of people on either side. What a dunce!

Probably because he wasn't expecting it. It's easy to watch someone else drive and then critisise
