Tax The Rich Flaming Miura In Court

[Macadoodle]

There was a video in the Tax The Rich YouTube channel a while back of a Lamborghini Miura going up in flames. It would seem the owner has decided to sue the garage who'd just serviced the car.

It's going to be interesting to see how this turns out. I was surprised to see that the burnt out shell of a Miura is still worth £200k

That sounds quite possible, trouble is now proving it. I think it'll come down to who has the best lawyers and who can present the best case to the judge.

I'm sure H.R. Owen can afford good lawyers, but reckon that the billionaire estate agent can afford better ones!

I'm surprised the insurers didn't try to get out of paying the claim if, as suggested above, there is a possibility of 'driver error' causing the fire. Perhaps they did, we'll never know. Very hard to prove I would imagine.

Get out of here with your reasonableness and facts, we don't like that!

Am I the only one wondering why it went to the Main Dealer in the first place? I'm no expert on Lamborghini dealers and their level of expertise on older models, but I'd have thought that it would be better looked after at a Classic Marque specialist. You wouldn't take your Jaguar XK120 to the local dealer would you?

Maybe he was trying to protect the RV by having a Full Dealer Service History

It looks as if HR Owen have branched out into classic cars under new ownership...
