Aston Martin
Proudly supports terrible french cars
After the last death I posted, maybe I shouldn't post another?
Please try and keep it civil, someone died.
You have to feel for the other driver, he killed someone. If she was in a 'real car' he wouldn't have to live with that everyday.

Please try and keep it civil, someone died.
A leading scientist died when the tiny electric car she was driving ?crumpled and imploded? in a crash, an inquest heard yesterday.
Judit Nadal?s G-Wiz disintegrated in the collision with a much heavier Skoda Octavia whose driver survived.
The death has added to concerns about the safety of the G-Wiz which is exempt from standard vehicle testing because it is classified as a quadricycle due to its low weight and limited power.
The hearing was told Mrs Nadal was late for a parents? evening at her 11-year-old son?s school and was not wearing a seatbelt as she thought it would crumple her clothes.
Judit Nadal died in the crash after her car, a G-Wiz 'crumpled and imploded' when it collided with Skoda Octavia. An eyewitness described the car's reaction to the impact as 'illogical'
AA president Edmund King said: ?When the G-Wiz has undergone safety tests it has failed appallingly. We have raised concerns about this because even though it is meant for driving around towns, you can cause devastating injuries when just going at 30 or 40mph.?
PC Simon Keeling said he couldn?t tell how fast the cars were travelling as the Skoda was a ton heavier than the G-Wiz.
Mr Walker said: ?What concerns me is that this vehicle was destroyed in this collision in a way that I have not seen a vehicle destroyed before.?
Dr Nadal suggested that his wife might have misinterpreted the traffic signals and Dr Walker will recommend that the sequence should be changed at the A41 Hendon Way junction with The Vale, near Golders Green. He recorded a verdict of accidental death.
Mrs Nadal was director of the Proteomics Facility at Imperial?s Institute of Biomedical Engineering. Proteomics is the study of proteins and can help find the cure to many diseases by identifying the proteins in human cells.
Dr Nadal described the G-Wiz, which is made by the Indian firm Reva, as ?a lovely little car for pottering around London? which needed to be driven with an ?appreciation of risk? like a motorbike. He added: ?It is very much not the vehicle to have a collision with another car in because they are obviously very flimsy
