I went out today early with Stan who brought his new Birkin. Nice car :D
We took the usual route to the ski lift and the the Ridge Road
All great so far. (video clip) Not even too hot.
Continuing on the freeway
the following happened (another video)
I guess I was careless not closing the latches properly after showing Stan the new engine setup. The bonnet landed between 2 lanes and sat there, still in good shape. However, before the CHP came and shut the Freeway down it was finally run over twice by trucks. Anyway, here is the result:
BEFORE:

and AFTER:

The positive side was that I could take the bonnet home in the passenger seat :roll:
What can I say, I think I am extremely lucky that I did not cause a major accident on the crowded freeway. The bonnet can be replaced. Anybody has a bare Birkin ali bonnet left over?
So, before you go out next time, check the latches :wink:
