"The prang was embarrassingly low-speed and therefore not related to my handling of the car, thank God.
Judging by the photos the car looks barely damaged.

Mr Beans Mclaren F1.
He had a little Meeting with a post last night in Peterborough. 25 mins from my house.
Apparently he's just hurt his shoulder...

Just what I was thinking when I saw the title. Was sure Jack would be along saying it was impossible as 'Macs don't crash, Steve wouldn't let them' ....

Don't think he's smashed this one up before. I know he destroyed one on a test drive before he bought the one above.

He has done over 30K in 15 years in that car hasn't he? Seems odd to 'lose it' after such a long ownership.

Read my above post. He has owned the car for over 15 years and has quite a few miles in it.

But thats only around 2k a year. Everyone has a moment now and again no matter how long they own a car. Guess things happen a bit quicker with that power on tap though

The roads were very slippery yesterday. As above, some times you just get caught out and with RWD and 600+bhp it's even easier to end up sideways through a post.
