Default Quickest way to blow $570,000

Taken from the Direct Import site.

http://www.directimported.com.au/down/570000.htm

Warning: The images show a crashed vehicle. No injured parties are shown though.

Additional info: Pointed out by WBB...there's what looks like blood on the windscreen in the final pic.

Hmm... you're right.

Another warning: There's what looks like blood on the windscreen in the final pic! Don't view if easily upset.

What a waste though, eh?

On the import subject. Do many people consider importing their cars to Oz\NZ?

We've been contemplating taking our Land Rover Discovery, but after looking on the aus Auto Trader, they are actually cheaper to buy out there, and it would cost 2-3,000 to export.

Sorry i diasagree, i don`t think it is blood on the windscreen i reckon it is markings on the wall, viewed through the windscreen.
Hope it is anyway, i am a strong believer that you can replace cars, but you cannot replace limbs and lives.

CUEBALL is right, it's clearly just red marks on the wall, from a previous crash

Ypou may be right but do not forget

When you advise the powers that be that you are the new owner of the car they will charge you some 3+% of the price you paid as stamp duty to change it into your name PLUS a fee for doing this of some $80!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH

You could always hook up with my ex-Mrs...she could probably get through a similar amount in less time if she actually made an effort.....!

Rich.

Makes me feel better about my recent ice-related tangle with a tree!!!

And yes, it's marking on the wall, not blood on the windscreen

Thats what happens when you drive a fast car with the passenger door and boot open

If they where closed the the cars aero-dynamics would have been perfect to hold the road
