OT: Maybe he needed a bigger wing?

Not sure if it's a real GT3 but still a shame: https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/porsche-911-crash-tonyrefail-teenager-18613571

And who took the headlights during a crash investigation?

It is alleged that the car involved in the incident was taken without the permission of the owner, who is understood to be a family member.

They have to say it was stolen or insurance can decline coverage. In the third world - err uk - the driver is insured rather than the car.

Quite an eye opener if you go from one system to the other.

South Wales Police said that a 17-year-old male had been arrested in connection with aggravated vehicle taking and other driving offences.

I will bet who ever owns the car is also pretty aggravated.
