4*0=0 or Another Ur-q bites the dust
A recent acquaintance of mine lost his Ur-q on Saturday thanks to somebody
laying down a slick of diesel that James Bond would have been proud of.
According to witnesses, the quattro was doing about 40mph when it hit the
oil, spun 180 degrees and then slid sideways into a wall that was alongside
the road. Both the driver and passenger were trapped in the car and had to
be cut free by the fire brigade who removed the roof. The occupants suffered
relatively minor injuries, cuts, bruises and slight concussion although they
are at a loss to understand how the passenger survived at all, as the left
hand door trim panel is now touching the transmission tunnel.
