That’s where I saw it but was too ashamed to share…

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

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

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...

"It was one of the very Zonda models that has a manual fitted gearbox."

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

Yes, but before that “Here Fenton- watch this”

Reggie is generally quite amusing.
Also FTAO of @dinny_g

I assume this is the same footage on youchoob?

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.

But sadly the audio is still there...

Is this exige’s gaff?

He lived in Northants and was building an orangery IIRC. There’s a 458 in the garage too..

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

There is also quite a lot going on there with all the different buildings. Head hurts.

We're a long way from the days when it was better value for Harry Hyams to keep it empty, aren't we

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!
