    Default Do not try this in your Veccy!!

    Mate has a T5 and went to get his 310 bhp upgrade a few weeks back. This gey called "WobblyDave" was at the tuning garage and offered to take us out in his black T5 which had every known upgrade known to man (350bhp stage 3 upgrade the lot!) he ended up doing 130 mph passed a motorcycle copper on the opposite side of the road, a total nut to be honest, was glad to get out!!

    Anyway, he has been quiet for the few weeks after we met him and this is why!... CLICKY

    Notice his attached images of the car too, I dred had it not been a Volvo, what woul dhave happened to him, I guess he's learnt a hard lesson.

    He was only insures 3rd party too!

    Dont try that in your Veccy-C!

    I have nothing polite to say about that... or about the "accidents happen" attitude of a lot of the replies he has received, so I'll leave it at that.

    It was quite lucky that there was a gap in the hedge for him to go through though

    at Gary.

    At least he wasn't too badly hurt and at least it will slow him down in the future.

    I think we all can learn from this, especially this time of the year. Drive safe Guys & Gals

    He still has his wing mirrors - I didnt have mine when I rolled my Astra!!!! Sorry, just noticed that. Glad he's ok, hopefully it'll make him chill out a bit, although none of us can judge - we all take our chances!

    blimey.

    It certainly shows how sturdy those Volvo's are!! Don't think he would have walked away in many other cars!
