Winchester, England: Car veers off the A272, couple sees craft and silver-suited being

At 9:00 p.m., Joyce Bowles and Ted Pratt were driving down the A272 near Winchester, England, when their car began to jolt and shake and veered off the road onto a grass verge. The car was subject to electrical interference: the engine roared and the lights seemed brighter than usual. They saw what appeared to be an orange, cigar-shaped craft about 15 feet long with three entities behind a window. A bearded humanoid in a silver suit came out of the object, walked to the car and looked in at the witnesses; he then disappeared and the couple were able to drive off. The case was reported in Flying Saucer Review in February 1977, including a vehicle examination. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
