That is very sad. All that effort gone in to making a beautiful car just to be trashed by some idiot with more money than driving ability.

If it was a house, it would be described as a renovator's delight. Looks good if you look at the left rear but the jaw drops as you walk to the RHS.Interesting you can only buy the parts, I remember Rolls Royce would ship cars back to England from Australia if they were written off.

I cant understand why everyone is complaining. At least it shows whoever had that car didnt just polish it in his garage, he drove it hard, they way it was built to be driven. OK, maybe he overestimated his abilities, but his (insurance) loss will enable someone else to get hold of a new-ish engine, supercharger & strong transaxle for their car.
Sorry guys, I know I dont post here often, and I'm definitely not looking for a fight!! | |

It seems people who should know better have put the blame squarely with the driver purely because it is a fast car, or have I missed something.
Shame on you!!!
Brian.
