So, he noticed that he had ruptured the LPG line and that gas was escaping but decided to have a cup of coffee before fixing it!!! Yep that is what they say he said! I was wondering if anyone would pick that little gem out. This happened about 20 mins drive from me.

;)What a clever guy! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D I take it you mean the Darwin awards, I think whoever picks them only gives them to people who were killed doing ridiculous things, this guy survived, otherwise he'd definately get it! ;D ;D ;D I love stuff like that, the other all time classic motor-bodging story (which unfortunately is probably an urban legend) is the one about the two good ol' boys in the US whose pickup's lights went when they were out frog hunting. It turned out to be a fuse that had gone, but they didn't have any spares to fix it, and they couldn't get the lights on. So they had the bright idea to stick a 22 caliber bullet in the gap where the fuse should be, and thought they were dead clever because the lights were working again. ;D ;D Then the bullet discharged and hit the driver in the nuts, causing them to crash the motor and get rushed to hospital with minor injuries, besides the bullet wound obviously!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D If only that was a true story, but to be honest I think it isn't.

Many years ago I changed my driving style to cope with rising fuel prices; I have now reached the stage where I am contemplating keeping my eyes shut in order to lower wind resistance.

the Dawins are what I was thinking of all right. And I knew you had to die to get in them. Maybe the "Mythbusters" team could re create this event. They love things that go off with a bang...

I know it's old, but it's still pretty funny, and it's timeless, which is why it keeps getting updated, which makes it even harder to find out if anything like that ever happened. Although as you say, when people started saying it, it was featuring cars that didn't have fuses anyway, so it probably isn't. It's still pretty funny! ;D ;D
