Default A P1 member had a front tyre blow yesterday
























































Poor guy. He has only owned his P1 for a couple of weeks and loved it.
Bob (middle aged guy) said it was the best car he had even driven by a mile.

He only suffered a cut head and is sore down his right side.

Did he say quickly he was going Clive? I'm sure he wasn't speeding or anything, it looks like a 60mph kind of road.

That must have been horrible in car, lots of glass has gone, it would have been a pretty hairy moment.

Feel for the guy, and that is proper mashed up..... That ain't no low MPH crash. Thankfully looks like no one else got involved and therefore the plod won't take much interest.

Thats one less P1 on the road, which will only push the prices up even more for those remaining.

Bloody hell, glad he's alright as that could have been a lot worse looking at the state of the car. Sad end for a P1 but at least he is in one piece.

40 mph ..........60 mph? .... I would be surprised..

Clumping something at 40mph would scrub off most of the speed.
Bob had 3 whacks that he can remember.
