Just seen this and cant believe it.
although i never met him face to face he was always a laugh on here and always made people laugh.
Such a sad loss at such a young age.
Thoughts are with his friends and family.
R.I.P

Does anyone know why he was going to look at a 106? Thought he had sold his type R so would of expected him to be looking at 'better' cars...
Still cant believe he has gone.

He has always fancied one, even tried to get him to get a 182.
But he always wanted the EVO, but I think was unprepared to be 2.5k insurance for one.
Was looking at this rallye as I think it was a 16v, it wouldn’t have last long, he sells them as quick as me, even quicker!
I had just convinced him to FCS show as well, not that , that’s gonna happen now :{

Never met the guy but has always been a sound member on here. Always game for a laugh. Never nice to hear about someone in crash let alone someone on here. Respects to his family.
RIP
Both having the parade lap at FCS dedicated to him and raising money for a Sax-P wreath are awesome and very good ideas.
Does anyone know his family? I should imagine it'd be nice in a week or so for them to be shown this thread as a tribute from us.

What a tragedy.... Never knew the chap in person, although I feel I must pay respects to him and his family nonetheless. I remember his Type R thread.
RIP Japman.

Unusual for me to post on threads like this because I like to believe that things like this dont happen, it is however the case and so many young lifes are cut short with or without blame.
RIP Gav.

RIP dude, bad time a sad day for welsh people and everyone else. I only posted with you once on a thread about my car being in a ditch. But you seemed cool as hell.  But im sure if there was any way you would wanna go i bet it was like that.

I hope his Dad is a strong man :{
Having already having to say goodbye to his wife, he now has to do it again with his son.
No parent should ever have to do that
