Can't see how it can cost half the value of the car to repair though. Probably £150k in parts and the rest in 9 months labour Ive nearly been run off the road more than a few bus drivers in the last 12 months. I find them worse in rural areas than urban.

neil tt Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Its only a ferriari, he probably though his name was Micheal Schumacher, and could run anybody off the road:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 The driver was on a car programme a while back, he also owns a Ferrari F1 car. I don't know why I bothered typing this, no point really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh bless... Probably the same attitude most people have when they see a Supra in bits on the side of the road - 'Oh it's just another Boy Racer...', but our own response is a bit different in those cases. At the end of the day it's still someone's pride and joy. So what if the bloke has money and bought an Enzo? I challenge anyone to do any different if they had the money. I'd be pissed off if some nob in a Bus ran me off the road, regardless of what I was driving. I just don't get this gloating 'He was wealthy so it's ok attitude' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil tt Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Wasn't thinking he was a boy racer, I'm a Mclaren fan, so sorry but anything to do with Ferriari is worth a laugh. If I had money I would buy a nice car but it would be a Mclaren:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get this gloating 'He was wealthy so it's ok attitude' It's not because he's wealthy and owns (owned) a Fezza. It's just typical of the people who come down to live in the area (yes, with their money) and have no regard for the locals. TBH, I seriously doubt it was the bus drivers fault.
