    Test drive crash results in £300,000 insurance claim

    A spokesperson for insurers Aviva said: "This is the biggest insurance payout we have had for repairs to a private car in the UK."
    Guess that's their no claims bonus out the window!

    "There are roughly only 10 Zondas produced per year and they are painstakingly constructed."
    .. Not too sure of the accuracy of that statement. It is more around 30.

    Just goes to show how amazing a photo like this really is.

    Sorry, guys, but that Zonda looked wrecked before it was wrecked. Pretty much the evolutionary endpoint of the path down which the Chevy Impala tried to head in 1959.
