Re: Re: Street Racing...

Remember Princess Diana? Well, she died in an W140 S600. Even royalty is not exempt. Safety is paramount when driving.
Street Racing is very dangerous. I have seen large cars turned into total crap. Princess Diana, God bless her soul, died in a S280 not a S600.

Here is a pic of her W140

OH, does it matter which W140 she died in? The only differences between the two are the engines and their standard features. The body structures and safety features should be the same.
As far as iam concerned, it was a huge trajedy.

Absolutely incorrect report that it was an s280. For one, I remember it being an S600. It had to have a V12 to move the armoured car. An S280 would not be capable of that feat. Besides, why would a multi-billionaire carrying a princess take her in an S280? It was an S600.
Hey Chad,
First, it was a rental car belonging to the hotel. Second, here are my sources, CNN and BBC:
