My understanding is that if you have a full time job in the UK and have been a resident for 6 months you MUST register it in the UK.

Any guesses how he lost it on a nice bit of well lit coverd dual carrageway doing 50mph?

The normal way for most Wilmslow residents is floor it from the roundabout to 100+ then go sideways on the damp bit between the tunnels then ricochet down the next one

Witnesses say it was tapped lightly from behind, rolled 6 times, before spinning around making a high pitched whiny noise...

Amazing how he can walk away unharmed from this and spent much off the match rolling around in agony when someone touches his socks.

I'm guessing this one will be returning to the factory to sort out the faults in the steering system. It's not surprising he crashed. one side of the front suspension appears to have taken a dive.

Went through the airport tunnel again today as a passenger in a Taxi. Just can't comprehend how he 'got it so wrong'? There is a pronounced curve through the tunnel which he obviously tried to straight line - the service tunnel safety barrier is well destroyed with the first impact mark a good 15 ft before.
Must have been 'destracted'!!!?

Did the taxi drop a cog with the window down?


Usual suspects use the tunnels for the aural experience and I think the tarmac may well be glassy near the entrances where 'lighting up' occurs.

Once you start to slide...........
