some irony that its a nurburgring special, all be it not on the stock rims, car meant to have been honed there, seems the driver wasn't, interesting what 'inusrance' he had

i'm assuming its not the one from the infamous detailing thread

Ouch. Yeah, I'd never take my own car around there unless I had money to burn!

I'm told by someone that knows him the bill is £40,000! Written off car, track repairs / closure, and the emergency support.
