When he ran up the road fearing for his life after an angry mob arrived on the scene he took the trade plates with him obviously.
Might as well add misuse of trade plates to it, why not...Oh, wait, don't tell me. He was going to meet a potential customer at the golf club, right?

I have a question about how the insurance companies will deal with this.
Lets say they were both drunk, and they both got done for drunk driving which invalidates their fully comprehensive cover, but their insurance companies still have a liability to pay out for the third party damage..
Wouldn't they both get their cars fixed?

No chip. Not sure why you'd think that?
Please point out any inaccuracies in what I said.
Hes in the supercar business thanks to his father. No other reason.
He crashed (possibly pissed) and legged it in a vain attempt to avoid responsibility for his actions.
Even after all this time he's not surfaced by the look of it, so now his father is having to speak on his behalf.
He's 30 years old and runs away like a child and is seemingly hiding behind his father.
You think his father wants his name and business being associated with this s
t?
What's pathetic, a young person crashes a car, no big news there. Does the price of the cars involved make them any worse than two people crashing Corsa's?Please point out any inaccuracies in what I said.

No it would still be pathetic surely ? There is something additionally negative though about a bloke who fronts up as a successful businessman who seeks his clients’ trust seemingly legging it rather than facing his responsibilities though isn’t there ?

I've already made it pretty clear I think running away in an effort to avoid your responsibilities is pathetic. In any situation.Did he think he'd get away with it? His name is on the numberplate FFS.
There's a reasonable suspicion he may have been drink driving too, hence the disappearing act. I think that's contemptible too.
I find a 30 year old "millionaire" being shielded by his father somewhat odd as well.
One of the main problems in society in general these days is people thinking they are not answerable for their actions. Lying or blaming others to cover their own ass. The way I was brought up and the circles I move in, that is frowned upon.
I will admit it's a pet hate of mine, but I hardly think it's an unreasonable stance.

Ok Gramps. Chill.Liking the 'circles I move in' theme.

Directly from the Porsche owners manual:
"Automatic mode
The rear wing extends automatically at speeds above approx. 75 mph (120 km/h) and retracts again below approx. 50 mph (80 km/h)."
Proves nothing."Automatic mode
The rear wing extends automatically at speeds above approx. 75 mph (120 km/h) and retracts again below approx. 50 mph (80 km/h)."
On most mainstream Porsches with a small rear wing the driver can fully extend it if desired either stationary and at any speed.

Ok Gramps. Chill.You worked out how many Performantes for the UK yet?
Fewer than GT2 RS and yet little premium on the Lamborghini.
Most telling.
how can anyone genuinely make £30m by the time they are 30 yrs by selling cars? totally impossible in the real world.
more worrying is why did they both run away from the scene?
Drugs, drink and drugs?
Why would someone run from their own car, and if a car dealer then he would have been insured so what is the reason to run?
I noticed the DM story has been updated but their comments section has now been frozen which means the lawyers are now on the case, expect the story to disappear soon.

You have to take ST Rich List with a bit of a pinch of salt.more worrying is why did they both run away from the scene?

It is based on asset value so assuming he has share of the whole TH snr shooting match which has extensive property (park homes) interests a value of £30m doesn’t sound too outlandish. Doesn’t mean he has £30m in the bank. Still not short of a bob or two though !

He hasn't. According to the Sunday Times rich list, he owns 50% of the £46m family business, which presumably the £46m is mostly assets held.It goes on to say that in 2016, the company profit was £2.3m on sales of £27.9m. Not exactly massive numbers.
