Bloody hell!!

A few years ago a mate of mine was towing my then motor (205 1.9 gti) with his land rover with a solid tow bar.

He was going a bit quick round some lanes, he then had to stop suddenly the landy went abit sideways and i was dragged into the back of it Not as much damage as that though!

The keys were in the car! The locking mechanism just hadn't been correctly and fully disarmed!
