Doesn’t look like too much damage but could be underlying stuff as he’d left the road good and proper

Paddy’s apparently binned a Diablo in the dales

Looks absolutely like a death smash..... maybe, not.

Whoopsie. It'll buff out

Good for a bit of publicity!

My other place is on that road. I am not at my other place

I’ve seen 220 VAN around here a number of times over the past month doing various bits of PR work including a couple of months at caffeine and machine (used to drive past it parked on the street at night!) I wonder how many miles it’s accumulating and if it’s being trailered around Yorkshire...

Funnily enough when tidying out the loft yesterday I found the original XJ220 promo brochure they made - a friend's dad was a lifetime Jag customer and they'd sent him a few to see if he'd be interested.

There was a lucky cunt on twitter today who found an original brochure for the McLaren F1 in his loft

[Ascender]

I"m heading for 50 and going slowly mad thanks to lockdown. Leave me alone!

... and a copy of the McLaren F1 book Driving Ambition.

Is a Diablo like that really a £250k car (pre-COVID19 at least)? I didn't realise they were particularly desirable. Far rather have a Countach or a Murcielago.

Depends how low the mileage is. And 1990 is pretty much the first year they came out isn't it? Ever since Harry's video I'd love one.

[GG.]

Yes - I think only very low mile late examples could command near that. That one looks likely to worth not a lot more than half.

I love a Diablo.

Was it the early ones that didn’t have power steering? I bet they’re tricky to catch when they let go...

[Orange Cola]

I think they weren’t the most forgiving anyway, and Paddy isn’t exactly the smallest guy to be sitting in one of those (probably done for comedic value, but won’t have helped when it let go).
