    That's the "before"...wonder if we'll get a pic of the "after"...not that I'm looking forward to the sight of a destroyed McLaren F1.

    The after picture the beeb had was boring. No burnt crispies. Just an F1 that had slid off the motorway sitting by a hedgerow. It was rather small too. So I didn't post it

    Mr. Bean's insurance company paid out £910K (~$1.4M) to fix the F1. If the estimate in the article above is right, the car is worth far less than it cost to repair it.
