Crikey!!!!!!

I hope she was ok, but looking at the car there must have been some injuries, or she is VERY lucky. :?

The car was empty on a trailer, from the article it sounds like it was the guy towing it who died

Looks to me like the lorry ploughed into the back of them in stationary traffic as they quite often do. :(

Not with your trailer Steve, the one i hired from four marks... to short and unstable with the Fury on it...had to abandon the trip, mind you i had already done 2 trips with it, moving the Cuda and the G.N. no problem
But the Fury was another story...thats why i borrowed yours later....worked fine

Thought the trailer and fury were going over on the M25 :shock:

Very Sad To See This, My Thoughts Are With The Family. :(

The Torino Looks Like One That Has Been Featured in Classic American, Light Blue With a Dark Blue Stripe.

The sky blue Torino is owned by my pal Ian from south Yorkshire. I have been trying to contact him with no joy as yet.









Will let you know.
