Mclaren F1 in big accident
Discussion
Hmmm.
Rowan was on Top Gear talking about his McLaren 2 Weeks ago.
His new Film is out in September. This Film is heavily featured
in the Top Gear bits that are all over the web.
I'll step up here and shout "Marketing stunt."
Viral Marketing at its best. Kudos to whom ever is working for him.

Looks like someone has been getting a little carried away on Wikipedia (emphasis is mine):
Just glad RA is ok as he's a legend and a proper petrolhead.

He used to own a McLaren F1, which was involved in an accident in Cabus, near Garstang, Lancashire with an Austin Metro. It was written off in a serious crash in August 2011 when he reportedly lost control and hit a tree and then caught fire.

On the off-chance that Mr. Atkinson reads this thread: I wish you and your stunning car a swift recovery to full health, and as others have already commented, I can only praise the fact that you actually USE your car. 
As an aside, it is wonderous what can be done to restore these types of car to showroom condition when money isn't the primary concern - The shame is that so many less valuable but significant and special older cars are needlessly scrapped after accidents / damage. I often cringe thinking "For the price of a new Kia Ecobox you could have repaired that".

Although it worked for Eddie Griffin in that awful Redline film, there is no way on earth Rowan would risk himself and sacrifice his beloved F1 to get a few twits on twitter gossiping. No chance at all.
The worldwide publicity Griffin crashing the Enzo got was priceless.
