300ft is a long way to drop, as he says his life went through his mind twice, but his lunch went through him even faster Laughing

very lucky though, especially in a soft top Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

If the wheel in the cockpit belongs to the car no wonder he lost control, check the rear off side tyre in comparison.

The tyres fitted to the car look like Goodyear F1's or something very similar.
the one in the footwell is something very different, a bit like mixing x-ply and radials.
on a ladies hairdressers car like that very iffy.

Well spotted. If he has mixed his tyres then it was an accident waiting to happen.
Especially in a hairdressers car Very Happy
