Just heard on the Scottish News that 4 youths stole a Subaru from Dunblane and crashed in Paisley (Glenifer Braes) with one in critical condition. Anybody on here own it?.

Youth dies after car hits TV van

By Anna Adams and Deborah Anderson
A TEENAGER has died after the stolen car he was travelling in crashed into a TV licensing van. Andrew McHendry, 18, of Potterhill Road, Pollok, Glasgow, lost his fight for life last night after being taken to Paisley's Royal Alexandra Hospital. He was one of five youths involved in the accident on Glennifer Road, near Robertson Road, Paisley, yesterday.

Saw the article in the Sun, what a mess! Glad the joyrider was the one killed, and the van driver didn't appear to have serious injuries.

One less scumbag for us to worry about. Just my opinion of course.

Mike.

Hope the guy in the van recovers ok,also hope who ever owns the scoob gets settled up promptly by his insurers.

If my scoob was ever stolen i would hope they killed themselves in it,better justice than 60 hours community service the courts would give the *******!

The car was stolen from a dealership a couple of days before the incident.

If you have a look at page 42 of this weeks Auto Trader you will see it as being advertised for sale.......

John
It's been on my mind to do just that for ages but work has been so hectic for ages now and when I get home all I want to do is chill. We'll have to get together some time as we'r local and have a beer and a laugh.

So the kunt responsible is most likely free now ?

Sorry but your mate who has no driving experience suddenly shows up in a scooby out of nowere

Im pretty sure all involved knew fine well it was stolen, he didn't win it at a raffle thats for sure

Play silly games - win silly prizes.

Can always ask to get let out the car.....

Sounds like the guy driving must be a known bell end so guilty by association if u ask me.

Fly with the crows you get shot with them

Without intentionally sounding insensitive, how do you know he wasn't aware it was stolen if he's dead ?
Maybe he knew fine rightly it was stolen.
Maybe the driver didn't tell him it was stolen.
You are just assuming the later the same way others assume the former.

Whether he knew or not your making yourself look like a dick, a thread no one remembered or cared about any more and you dragged it up.

Most people on here will have lost a close mate when young, whether in a accident, or poor decision choices, whatever. A mate of mine killed himself after coming out of the forces. I lost 2 friends in car accidents before I was 20.
But no-one on here, since you revived this thread after nearly 19 years, had made any comment.
Let your good mate rest in peace, whatever the cause.
