    classic action on your everyday bit of urban road high speed carnage...
    fantastic - though I hope no one was hurt in the incident, still f*ing amusing though!!

    O...theat just aint fair....

    those cars will be all off sale for AGES, and even then they'll be repsrayed and never as lovely as before....

    From outside the trade, that looks really funny...can see it....but from inside....that would cost me dearly, to lose all that stock from being sold.

    Horrible thought *shivvers*

    Nice piccie tho

    Basically a van cliped the curb at 70mph and smashed into 3 Audi TT's outside a main dealership.

    The way it happened and how the van got to that position is still beyond me. I see crahes and wonder how the heck that could have happened. I couldn't do it if I tried!

    reminds of that email that goes around every so often with quotes from insurance claims. One guy had hit a cow and the question on the form was "Did the other party say anything after the incident" and the guy wrote "mooo". Priceless
