Enzo accident in Jersey
Discussion
That's happened on the only bit of dual carriageway on the island so probably the only section of road where you could open it up a bit.
As far as what's the point on Jersey? It's a short hop on a ferry to St Malo, then you're into Euro Road trip territory and having these cars makes sense.
I used to live in St Helier in my early 20's and one of my memories is waiting to cross the road while a procession of Ferrari's, Lamborghini's & Aston's drove past. I think it was as the 5th car passed I came out of my day dream and thought "Wait a minute..." It was the first supercar procession I had seen.
Edited to pluralise Aston

Not wishing to come across as pedantic, but why didn't the plural of Aston get an apostrophe ? Or more pertinently, why did Ferrari and Lambo ? As far as what's the point on Jersey? It's a short hop on a ferry to St Malo, then you're into Euro Road trip territory and having these cars makes sense.

Never been to jersey - is it worth having a super car there ? Are there decent fast roads ?
Anything bigger than a Focus felt excessive there. 40mph limits, very narrow roads linking places together.You may as well try to play with an Enzo in Tokyo gridlocked rush hour. Utterly pointless, in my opinion.

Definitely not! We had a short family break there over the Summer. Took the wife's Stelvio which felt far too big! Some of the roads between the South and North are decent but low speed limits and far too narrow to enjoy with other traffic. There doesn't seem to be any pavements just walls and the side of peoples houses to catch your wing mirror or alloys on. SteveStrange said:

Isn't there a fairly decent straight bit of road out by St Ouens Bay? Jules360 said:
