Very Lucky People.

[WhackyWill]

This very rare, one off red-on-white McLaren F1, worth over $3 million, lost control, flipped over and crashed into a tree while participating in a convoy of 4 Mclaren F1s. Actor, Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean), was part of the convoy and was the first to aid the driver and passenger, both of whom survived. Mr. Bean crashed his own Mclaren F1 a few years ago.

They will repair that, they repaired Rowan Atkinsons when he totalled it!

[aidan]

Aye repaired Atkinsons and in the process added 20 quid to everyones insurance poilcy!!!!

[RobPhoboS]

It was worth more than £3mil imho.

But they can be fully rebuilt at McLaren of course for a little sum

Oh my word....I think if I'd been the driver I might have wished I'd died when I saw the state of the car. So did the recovery vechicle just happen to be carrying a perfect fit McLaren F1 car cover?

Oops, mixed tyres?

[GMballistic]

Such a shame.

Rowan Atkinson has crashed his F1 twice now. The first time he took out a Rover Metro in 99.

Probably already had one onboard the crashed vehicle.

Was just going to say he must not have had MPSS all round

What an insurance claim that might be... lol

[choptop]

I wonder if his local breakers have any second hand parts?
