Just seen this Chim on the classifieds from Douglas Valley - www.pistonheads.com/sales/84742.htm
Passenger rear wheel is right up in the passenger compartment, just makes you realise what can happen.
Hope the driver and possible passenger got out OK....

Strange it appears to have two different front springs. One red, one yellow. I thought the yellow ones were rears?

Yep folks, that was my Chim, that was.....
No passenger thankfully, and I'm finally back at work.
Still fighting a dangerous driving charge, though its quite difficult as I don't remember a thing about it!
Really missing it now.....
