Not surprising when you look at the standard of his driving, particularly in that first video of him "racing" on the streets of LA, he's not even going that fast but he barely looks like he is in control.

Looks like he clobbers the SL too, certainly seems that way from the audio.

Shame.

Fortunately he didn't, the driver of the SL wrote this comment:

SL driver said:
My car was completely unscathed… it was not ‘clipped’ it was not ‘brushed’ my wheels were not damaged… I scuffed the tires lightly on the curb at the last moment, but the hub caps were untouched… even the driver’s seat remained ‘unsoiled’ (amazingly)

That is because the SL had a decent driver who looked ahead, anticipated the situation developing and moved right across to avoid the talentless tt in the Porsche.

I can honestly say that I had never heard of him.

Seriously? That's priceless. Not even a lame excuse like "Ooh, I wasn't expecting that to be parked there", then.

I only knew who he was because he was on The Classic Car Show. Where he drove the same.

That is my understanding, yes. Obviously a Sheffield United supporter.

I see it mentioned on the other thread too, although that may be repeating what I had already said here. I have no reason to doubt what I have heard though.

Reminds me of the funniest bit of banter that I have ever heard one football pitch. Defender keeps bad-mouthing our striker with really foul language and then this happens:-

Striker: Come on, mate. Calm down a bit.
Defender: I'll fking knock your teeth out, you . I'll be waiting for you after the game.
Striker: Seriously? You must be 40. What would your kids think? Grow up.
D: My kids would be proud of me. I'm from fking Sheffield.
S: Your kids sound like s too, you cretin

The only time I have ever seen a grown up get so angry that he jumped up and down.

Back on topic, horrendous driving. The guy is a moron and his cars are turd.
