An eight-legged beastie has forced a British woman to dump her car with a lot of haste.
Michelle Holloway from Somerset in England sold her Mazda 626 after spotting a tiny spider on the driver’s seat.
The 27-year-old hates spiders so much she was forced to sell the car she had bought for £1 000 (R11 000) for £850 (R9 350) in order to get a quick sale.
Michelle is now relying on a lift to her job at a nearby hospital – she feared that if the spider appeared again she would crash. Her boyfriend carried out a search of the Mazda, but couldn’t find the eight-legged beastie.
