Driven a couple of these.

Even in the dry they are a handful.

I actually saw the same thing on the M27 whilst going to Portsmouth for a course a couple of years ago. It must have just happened, cos the TVR was on its roof in the outside lane against the barrier, and both the driver of it, and the driver of the car it collided with were walking toward the hard shoulder as I and other drivers had just slowed down and passed it. Luckily no one was hurt, but such a waste of a good (if horribly unreliable) car imo.  :sad:

Transport manager - "I'm terribly sorry sir, but whilst in transit, your TVR seems to have come loose from its strops on the top our our transporter. It has suffered irrepairable damage due to landing on its roof"

Owner - "Are you taking the F!*king P*ss!"
