Nick Grimshaw has rolled his G

I couldn't read the whole report because my teeth were grinding too hard.

Is there something wrong with this bloke? His commentary makes him sound like a teenage girl off her swede on Woodpecker cider for the first time.
 
I like to see you turn that car over at 15 mph without any help from a ramp...
 
Apparently he clipped a parked car, riding up it's wheel arch, suppose that might do it?
 
One would assume that it would have used more skill & effort to achieve this than to just do nothing and have the crash. At 15mph it seems hard to imagine what terrible fate would have awaited him had he simply put his foot on the brake pedal.
 
I don't personally believe him unless he caught some thing like the kerb first then the wheel arch. Did you see the tyre marks on the road although its not proof they were his i think its likely he was going twice then speed he suggests. Has anyone spoke to the cat for his version?
 
I don't think the cat has stopped laughing long enough...
 
In the paper this morning it was stated that he'd only been doing 10 mph.

Bring back the A Class Elk test, I say.
 
Ah. The cooking fat.
 
Ahhaah. Some clues in the below quote from Grimshaw. I turn out of my house every day as do millions of others. Why are all of our cars not falling over?

"I wore my new trainers and I thought ‘wait til MistaJam gets a load of this’. I got in my car and I was so looking forward to this. “I turned out of my house ... my car flipped over and went over on its side. People were like ‘you can’t have been doing 15 miles per hour’ ... I was, that’s how embarrassing this was.”

That's the bit that set me off.
 
Saw a G Wagen only the other day, I swear it was doing 20 plus round a roundabout and it managed to stay on its wheels. That must have taken some skill.

Lets have a see what Jay or Bear have to say about this. They must have gone up a least a curb or two in their G's.
 
Drove a G63 at the weekend and the weight shift is surprising if you're used to 'normal' cars as is the very slow steering rack.

Still epic though and also the most pointless car on the road...I want one.

Mind you, I wanted the AMG GTS as well :)
 
It's a good job he swerved when he did, because if he can flip a car at just 15 mph, imagine the damage the cat would have done to his car if he had collided with it.

Obviously the cat would have come off unscathed, but his car would have been totalled.

Mind you, if it had been James Corden, the car would have probably flipped the moment his backside hit the driver's seat.

Manufacturers need to take note. Cars of yesteryear could be driven at insane speeds, such as 20 mph, without any sort of calamity, yet these modern variants seem to have serious safety issues.
