Lived fast and died young. Sad but I bet he enjoyed himself.

Hell yeah - he always said he'd never make 30. He bought a Fireblade and we all said jokingly that he'd kill himself on it. How ironic!


Keeping schtum. Mostly.

Guess it wasn't a puncture judging by the way he carried on, but why did Moby's car do that in the first place? The world's biggest baby oil spill?

This is actually a trait of what Audi's can do.. go to correct a little oversteer, and it bites you right back, and was the original problem that TTs had prior to their launch, hence the boot spoiler to anchor the rear end down a little better. be it 2wd or 4wd, TT, A3, or A4 they do this! anyone remember the Youtube clip from about a year ago, that showed a guy with an in car camera mounted in his A4, minding his own business on the autobahn, all of a sudden, he's doing a 180, or 360 onto the hard shoulder, luckily missing everything..

..in the hands of a bad driver.

That guy on the motorway hit some oil. Would've been game over in a beemer.
