The $1M Car Crash (It Involves a Blonde, Five Very Expensive Cars and Monte Carlo)
Herald Sun ^ | July 28, 2011

IT'S the one place in the world you don't want to have a prang but one blonde driver's antics outside the Place du Casino, in Monte Carlo, made every tourists' day.

A parade of some of the world's most expensive cars turned into a demolition derby after a driver scraped her $370, 000 Bentley against a $111,000 Mercedes S class.

The woman's 2.7 tonne beast then went on to plough into a $207,000 black Ferrari F430 before crashing head-on into a Porsche 911 worth $118,000 and a $207,000 Aston Martin.

The total value of the cars involved in the bingle is $1.02 million.

The driver and her two passengers were circled by hundreds of tourists after the pile-up, unable to open their car doors.

The cost of repairs is expected to reach around $60,000.

If you can afford the Bentley 60,000 in repairs is nothing.

>> Not guilty. <<

Don’t be so fast. We probably should have a full-body shot before we pass judgment.

Running down a servant or two is to be expected but this is inexcusable.

She’s a blonde. She’s probably not accustomed to being in the front seat. :)

“bingle” Great word for a car crash.

I rather have the car than the blonde. Maintenance would be cheaper.

Blonde? Maybe in the way she drives, but otherwise....no.

CAR TROUBLE
A blonde pushes her BMW into a gas station. She tells the mechanic it died. After he works on it for a few minutes, it is idling smoothly.

She says, “What’s the story?”
He replies, “Just crap in the carburetor”
She asks, “How often do I have to do that?”

I am guessing the repairs are going to be way more expansive than that.

No question; that is one good looking blonde, though possibly not the brightest bulb in the pack.

We have to pass judgment to find out what’s in it :-)

My first reaction was a Chevy Monte Carlo? But then I realized it was where the incident took place.
