Another TF LE500 has been written off, again it's vibrant orange and number 22/500.
Is it something to do with the colour ? Too bright

, however the floor pan is bent but it goes to show that they write cars off too easy, this one was not sold, it was the dealers display car for Hopton Garages.

I wonder how many are actually registered, and of those, have actually made it off a garage forecourt into a buyers hands?
2 written off must be quite a high percentage?

Strange that this one gets damaged to the rear, most accidents are frontal.

A look at the other car might be enlighting

No so much work or money needed (less than 1000 euro for work and paint, I think) to repair this one.

A shame, I need more place to put all the cars here ......
We have a perfect donor TF car at the moment

Not when using new official parts, I guess. Put a new rear bumper, an exhaust and a rear light cluster on your shopping list and you haven't got much spare to spend.

The insurance company and the owner of the car (if he's smart).

It is a perfect way to sell the 500 LE-500 cars. Crash them and sell a new one!

They are crashing them faster than they are building them....
