Before the rollover crash
A red color Mini had a rollover accident during a classic Mini convoy from Kuala Lumpurto Pahang last year. The driver is believed lose control and leave the roadway and crashed in the canyon that is about three meters deep. He did not get pinned in the car and he is managed to get out from the car. A tow truck was there to tow the car out from the mud. No injuries occurred as a result of the accident.
As for the poor red Mini, it received some dents on the body as well as front bumper and the left rear side windscreen was broken. Other than that, no major damage except it’s all covered with mud especially the left door panel. Thanks to the strong engine sump guard, the engine did not damage at all. Stainless steel Aston fuel cap locked the petrol tank tight too. The car just start after it is being “landed” again.
Owner of the red Mini drove the car few hundred miles again after the incident. Now that’s the spirit of Malaysia Mini Drivers! The rest of the story can be read from the 14 photos shared here taken from Rudy Harris.
