WTF???
manual i guess?
I saw this the other day, it must have been in gear, clutch depressed when starting and he then let the clutch out not realising it was in gear.
Unfortunate for sure!
True story, the first m4 I went to look at years ago was at a main dealer on the way to hull. Salesman brought the car round from the rear parking lot, and left it running whilst I had a look around it. I asked if he could rev it whilst I was around the rear to check for smoke and it flew off forwards with him hanging half out the car! How he got on the brake I’ll never know but he was feet from taking out the forecourt stock
Dct doesn’t creep like a normal auto does it so he thought it was in neutral
Apologies for not being on much recently, I’m getting married a month today and it’s just been mental getting things in order. Meetings left right and centre, first stag do last weekend (messy!), her hen this weekend, Manchester stag mk2 the weekend after, camping the weekend after that. She’s still not got her passport back, covid pass in her maiden name, etc……
Im off for a drink!
