Don't know the area that well, came past me on a single carriageway road North West of Hull. I was in a 4x4 towing the red XR2 on a trailer. Private plate, can't remember what letters ;)
With the XR2 taking up most of my time since summer, the 1.poo has been neglected, badly. Hadn't been cleaned since July and had taken a trip into a hedge whilst it was icy, damaging the splitter, foglight and splash guard.

How to survive hitting a lamppost at 100+. Don't wear a seatbelt. Apparently the driver in this was flung out of the vehicle which saved his life. You can guess what would have happened had the belt retained him in the car...

Finally last friday morning came around and it was time to head off to Oulton Park for the first race, six months after owning the car and getting it ready to see a circuit once more. For those who are unaware, see: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?487157

He broke his right ankle in two places and has two broken ribs, a cracked shoulder blade, a dislocated shoulder and a broken right little finger. He will...
Quite a major one this, and quite funny. If you search the faq of an unpatched version, such as:
