This F-Type crash from the 2014 Jaguar Simola Hill Climb event that took place in South Africa over the weekend will leave you with your mouth open… We say this because, despite the severity of the accident that saw the F-Type roadster (!) perform a 360-degree flip at speed, amazingly, the driver opened the door, waved to the crowd and walked away unhurt!
South Africa’s Car Magazine reported: “The driver of this Jaguar F-Type V6 S escaped serious injury after crashing heavily during the 2014 running of the Jaguar Simola Hillclimb event in Knysna”
We’re short on details, so we don’t know whether the British roadster was fitted with a race-spec roll-cage, but if it wasn’t, then this incident could become the poster boy for Jaguar’s safety-ness.
