R.I.P
Thoughts go to his family.
What actually happened? He went to see an Evo and the owner crashed during the test drive?

According to what I have been told, him and his mates have been to look at a car today, The owner of this car they were looking at took Gav for a test drive, ( Gav being a passenger). His mates waited over a hour for his return, then spotted the police chopper along with lots of sirens, so they went down to see what it is, and found the car had hit a wall, with most of the damage being on the side Gav was at.
Impact was that bad he was killed out right.
I am rather upset tbh, so i can only imagine what he is best mates like Matthew are feeling, so when the time is right am sure we can find out the correct story. Not really fitting at the moment for me to ask.

Fuck that's awful.
Didn't know him personally but he always came across as such a nice guy.
Sorry to hear this news. R.I.P. Gav.

If the drivers still alive he could be charged for manslaughter?
Like you say though, not an approiriate time to even talk about this, should just be an RIP and condolences for now imo.
What youve told us is enough for us to know.

Not really asked mate.
But according to the bits I have been told the car was travelling at speed.
He was so excited about becomign 21 to so his insurance would go down at bit, so he could get the Evo he wanted.
Mind you he did get quotes and it wasnt going down..Shame

Always shits me up this sort of thing.. Makes you realise that having a quick car isn't all that is important, My mate died a few years ago in a 106 GTi trying to pass a pack of cars, He was awaiting his fresh Impreza import to come into the country but never got to see it
R.I.P man! x
