Yes, there is an SR20 in France that was successfully landed in a field by a low-time pilot after the engine had quit due to corrosion in the fuel system, which had probably developed during a few months where the aircraft had not been flown. Here is the incident report (only in French):

"Conséquences: Aucune" means: No consequences, the aircraft flies again.
