Assume its not Manchester demo car is it ? Same colour (although I suspect 99% of them are white).

I cant quite work out what he would have been doing to get that sort of damage. Spun into a kerb perhaps?

I don't think it is. Although hard to tell, the wheels look different.

Either some sort of suspension failure which i higly doubt or he/she has smashed into a kerb. Difficult to tell without seeing the other side.

Lovely car though and matt white i think.

Hi there,

Definately not the Lamborghini Manchester Demo car as this nearly ran me over at about 2pm today when I was stood in the street outside their showroom trying to get a picture of the gorgeous Silver/Dark Blue Bugatti Veyron they have in the window.

Regards

Tim

Usually you lose a wheel like that by spinning across a kerb. Catches the inside of the wheel and rips it off.

Yeah, I think so - chap at work saw it - there was also a report in a local paper. It appears that it was actually hit by a corsa. Will go and see if I can get a copy of the press report.

The pit ponies have good cornering ability, but the speeding whippets often cut them up. The coal carrying old boys take up the slow lanes of the land alongside Fred Dibnah on his traction engine whilst trying to avoid the Hovis bread carts, but other than that the driving standards are much the same as the South... wink
