Incidentally was this an XW GT or a South African XY GT? Just noticed the small tag on the radiator support.
Also any shots before in all it's glory? That will make a fitting tribute to the car. People can remember it like it was.
Cheers,

That tag looks South African but theres also an aussie tag on it.

I can only guess it happened on that kink just before the bridge. In the same catergory three torrys got written of there last year.
