Unhappy Scooby crash on A46 near Japfest

Just heard from a Friend who was concerned I might be involved. Apparently a crash has happened on the A46 near the Cross Hands involving a Subaru or possibly a few Subarus ??? As this is just down the road from Japfest, I can only assume they were on there way to it

So what happened then ?

Thanks Phill

PS Hope everyone is ok

Unhappy

Just spoken to someone that knows someone, who was in the Cross Hands car park when the incident happened. Apparently it was on the junction of the A46 and the B4040 (Cross Hands) and it was a Porsche and either a Nissan or Evo!!! Oh no.....

As I said before, I hope they're all ok!!

Phill

PS At least it has not involved anyone from the SW posse

It was a mitsi gallant or possible an older Evo. The Porsche Cayenne that hit it had a smallmark on the front bumper and the mitsi was stoved in

Wow yeah - don't even get within air flow distance of it, that in itself might well have ya bonnet off.

That don't look nice though - with the ambulance, hope all were ok!

I heard this on the car radio (Lincs FM) saying that the A46 had long tailbacks due to a serious accident.

Anyone got any better (not that it could be any better ) pictures of it? Thought that enough people would have and didn't get the camera out.
