Did recovery get your car out without any damage?
And did you then eventually make it to the gig?

Incident occurred on the J17 slip road onto the M25 another case of more beans than traction on a very damp & slippery bit of road.

Looks like the Cerbera drivers on Sunday were all practising 'suicide bombers' - how many's that now - four?
Somebody organise another 'Keep TVR British' protest for remaining Cerberas at Beachy Head this Sunday - could go over one at a time until NS reneged and promised to keep TVR in Blackpool.
Might not work but YouTube would get plenty of material.

In light of pics not working can you say what colour is it? Trying to work out if it is one already discussed or yet another from what has been a fairly bad weekend for Cerbs.

Haven't used Yahoo for ages, do you have to make the albums public or something, you can probably see them regardless as you are logged in.... not sure on this, just a suggestion.

Blimey... another, though hopefully this time without damage.

Does seem odd that only Cerbs were firing off the road that day.

Damn! Saw Mr Griffith driver taking a picture following my little "off" and hoped he wouldn't publish it!

Anyway - yes! Slippery road (and white line) - into second at 40mph and off we went!

Thanks for stopping and helping keep the traffic moving past me. Simon (in the T350) stayed with me until the AA arrived and dragged me back onto the road. Taken to South Mimms where I did a little test drive. All seemed ok so drove back (slowly) to East Grinstead. Car is currently with Paul at Austec for assessment - alloy needs refurb, bent exhaust and a bit of paint damage underneath.

Missed all of LT 2006! As did Simon.

Paul

PS By the way - it is the wife's car and the only reason she wasn't there 'cos she was working!! She has been telling everyone all week - "he bent my car!"

PPS For those asking, the colour is "Imperial Blue" (plus mud at the moment)

On the basis that I was there to witness the incident, I can confirm that Paul felt suitably unhappy about the incident!! What hasn't been said is that this occurred, because whilst overtaking a lorry, it drifted towards him and unfortunately in trying to stay clear he crossed on to the white line!! Thankfully avoided the lorry and hopefully with limited damage!

Jesting or not you won't make many friends with comments like that!!
