Just went to replace the broken glasses and destroy the SS exhaust fund, when I ended up facing the wrong way!

Indicated right going uphill, let off a bit and turned with balanced throttle. Road was a bit off camber and the rear bounced off a lump in the road. Felt car go, put the opposite lock on, but not enough, ended up 180 degrees on the other side of the road. Luckily there was no one else in the car or on the road.

Scary when you're not expecting it.

Only ever done this as a passenger in my brothers old Spitfire. I think he got bigger rear tyres after that!

Glad to hear you're ok.
