feel sorry for the owner now he must have had a bad day that day.

I have scraped my car NON P CAR reversing into my garage or drive way on occasions but this was a huge error on the drivers part. I think he must have panicked and instead of going for the brakes punched the gas pedal.

Oh dear probably going to end up at douglas valley as it is water cooled now

Real shame if it gets scraped, as nive looking 964

Maybe he tried to knock it out of reverse and it held in place rather than going into 1st?

I was quite relieved when I got to the out of the water pics. When I saw the first shots of a black 964 under the water....I thought it had all got too much for them recently and Frank and Betty had decided to end it all!
