When traffic lights in Stockport, Cheshire turned green, Fletcher attempted to pull off at such speed that his front wheels spun for an amazing 42 secs before the car began to move. Both tyres fell to pieces and the clutch dropped off twenty yards down the road. The girls walked off.
Not wishing to be pedantic or owt, but MK11 escorts were rear wheel drive

Although I believe the rest of this "fact" to be absolutely true
