For me you have to be a spectacular bell end to lose a £200K car in the first hour. Take it easy and practice the levels of grip in a dry open area. Even pootling around a track for £200 would have been cheap in comparison.

I bet he did...wonder what type of excess is applied to the 'free' insurance. When I picked up the MC, I had 7 days insurance but didn't even think to look at the excess. If he didn't have gap insurance that 1 hour drive will likely cost him £20k....

Shame a beautiful car has been destroyed, glad the driver got out safe. Seems everyone is ready to hang the guy for making a mistake.

You think another driver/car was involved?

Silly tw@t.
Reminds of all the nonchalant ferrari owners who end up stuffing their brand new prancing horses into the armco at the ring and then laughing it off 'i'll get a new one tomorrow..'.
The lucky ones end up with just burned out clutches, only to return the next weekend to stuff it into the armco...

I'd still like to know how one ends up 50m down a banking when one's maintaining sensible speed.
