Employee crashes Spyker showmodel

[Stoopie]

An employee from the Antwerp garage Beerens couldn't have done any worse. The poor man didn't have a car accident in his entire life.

But just when he had to drive a brand new dutch Spyker, worth €271.000, to a big carshow in Brussels, the car slipped on its side in a small river and the car got heavily damaged.
"I probably pulled the wheel a bit too much", said a poor Gert Beerts saturday in The Latest News.

The car should've been the crown on the Brussels carshow, that starts saturday. There are only 3 of the model driving around in Belgium. Car producer Spyker from Zeewolde immediately sent an alternative car, that has been displayed at the very last moment for the aprox. 320.000 visitors for the Autosalon of Brussels.

Hmm waiting for pictures.

[yg60m]

I hope he won't have too much troubles :? And I suppose the car was insured :wink:

[Stoopie]

he had to evade another driver doing a stupid maneuvre, the other driver was a dutchie!


Don't think so, why would he say himself that he pulled the wheel 'a bit too much' then? Weird statement then, wouldn't it be?

Why not, wouldn't you tell the truth then? :?

[Mattk]

the other driver was a dutchie!

Ah, the Dutch... So often blamed for so much.

[spidey007]

It wasn't :lol:

the owner of the garage was interviewed on the news, and he said that all 550 cars of his company were fully insured (omnium) , except for this one Spyker ... he thought it wasn't necessary

[TopGearNL]

the other driver was a dutchie!

Ah, the Dutch... So often blamed for so much.

LMAO!

True.. most of the times :oops: :P

Well yes, but I think it would be weird to state this then. He's now clearly implying that he made the mistake because of his steering, not because of him having to pull the wheel because of someone else.

Thats true but if he said that it could be, maybe he's an activist who doesn't like supercars :bah:

Some crazy people on the roads these days...
