Inevitable frown

I wonder if its like a McLaren F1, due to value and rarity it's never really written off... Rowan Atkinson's car had quite a smack but was repaired.

I expect the value of the One-77 is such that probably any repair is viable. Hope so anyway...

If it's a write-off, will that increase residuals on the other 76 as they will be even rarer now?? smile

Sad news from super car land, a fine Aston Martin One-77 crashed very hard in the great city of Hong Kong. This car normally lives in the great city of Shenzhen, just across the border, and doesn’t have any license plates, meaning the insurance, if there was any, will not pay a dime. What happened exactly is unclear at the moment but the One-77 seems totaled. The cause of the crash might have to do with the fact that Hongkongnese drive on the wrong side of the road, a left-over from British rule. This can be confusing for a mainland-Chinese driver, especially with 700hp on tap. Via: Weibo.

Q. How do you repair a carbon chasis?

A. You dont. You have to build a new one.


Q. Will AM build chasis no.78?

A. Now that is a one million plus one million pound question.

Doesn't look that bad.

Aston must have spare carbon tubs for the One-77 so sure it'll go back to the factory and fixed up good as new.

Oh I get it!

AM will have a new carbon fibre tub built and it becomes a Two-77

So then the Great driver from the Great City of Shenzhen, can Grealy smash up his next Great car in another Great city of the Great South East Asian locality!

Great!

Why do stupidly rich people take these rare works of engineering masterpieces for granted? I know old ladies who take care of £500 crap wagons better than some of these numpties!
Senless waste.

Speaking of the one-77, has anyone seen the photo of some guy standing on the wing of a black one while being photographed?

Not heard of that, but what a massive tt. Why would you do that to any car, let alone a One-77.

Some more pics of the crashed one:

Look at where they are off laoding that I suspect there will be hundreds of "ting tong" copies of the 1-77 on the streets in the next few weeks
