Definitely the wife. 100% the wife. I’d rather watch it if schmeeeee was commentating

As for the crash, drops a couple of gears, full throttle, inside wheel slips, diff fires him into the wall. It’s a tale as old as time itself

I thought my wife was bad as a passenger but this does put it into some perspective :lol:

Many of the comments are in the vein of "I feel more sorry for Gary" :lol:

As for the crash - pfft - been there got the t-shirt. The Zonda even had all four wheels on the car so he clearly wasn't trying.

The Zonda can and will be repaired. Gary's wife however...

I imagine the Zonda driver was screaming "Fenton, FENTON OH JESUS CHRIST FENTON" as it dramatically went out of his control.

Well, yes, but because it's been uploaded as a short without scaling to suit, they've cut off almost all of the actual crash.

I think he lives in Warwickshire now. His old house was just in Northants and made of similar stone to that,but that's not it.

That's a rather substantial property (and price).

That's the exact price the 2 bed flats at Centre Point are going for. I was also hoping it would be substantially less :lol:

Yep. Also with the Centre Point development I remember reading the residents on a block of flats just beside it got hit with a £750,000 service charge bill to change the cladding!
