Fo' real, luckily I had dog, child and Lady SS in the car so wasn't giving it the beans. The rear blew out instantly, the front took about 5 seconds to deflate. To say it was a bit of a "brown-stripe" moment is somewhat of an understatement.

Jeeees-hus christ, lucky to still be with us then, could have been so, so different, sure two new tyres would fuck you off, but i'd be happy with that under the circumstances.

I had a blowout last year on A55 (coming back from a funeral of all things), glad you sorted it all out SS with no harm.

A blowout at 70mph really concentrates the mind a tad!

fc got mad when the wheel wouldn't come off

Blimey chaps.
Glad you're all still with us.

Scary stuff!! Remember me dad having one of these lotus's back in the day and going down the motorway on a day out and having a blow out and the entire front wheel coming off in the fast lane!!
Quite scary watching ya front wheel going faster ya you are across the motorway.
My dad sold it not long after i seem to remember

the midnight drop

Is that a euphemism for one of those mahoosive pooh's who's arrival is so imminent it cant wait til morning so it awakes you in the night forcing you to stumble bleary eyed into the bathroom to give birth to it?

[mr.pure]

What midnight drop are you two talking about ?
