Repairs to a supercar damaged when a test drive went wrong near Aberdeen are set to cost an insurance firm £300,000.

The Pagani Zonda S, which would cost more than £500,000 to buy, was involved in a crash last September.

The car has been sent for repair to Modena in Italy, where the vehicles are made.

A spokesperson for insurers Aviva said: "This is the biggest insurance payout we have had for repairs to a private car in the UK."
I wonder if they bought the car afterwards.

(That's $446,770.73 for the Americans out there, 335,011.48 euros for the Europeans and $457,923.67 for the Canadians)

Probably a carpet/gas pedal issue

Way to go and further alienate Australians. Haha, I'm joking. That's a stupidly high amount for a car though. Somebody's having a bad day I'd bet.

The only winning move is not to play.
