Glad I Don't Pay *That* Premium...

Mopar sends in a story of an extremely expensive fender-bender:

Hapless blonde crashes her Bentley into a Merc, Porsche, Ferrari and Aston Martin
When in Monte Carlo, everything is done in style. And that includes crashing your car.

This was the moment when a woman driver caused a £700,000 five-car pile-up as her Bentley collided with a Mercedes, Ferrari, Porsche and Aston Martin.

Disaster struck as the hapless blonde negotiated the traffic around the Place du Casino in her £250,000 Bentley Azure.
Whatever you do, don't click the link. There's pictures of the carnage and everything. Five exotic cars, the least expensive of which is well into six figures, all damaged, some pretty seriously. Now, I've had my share of fender-benders in the past, but none that required hundreds of thousands of dollars to fix. This one's gonna leave a mark on her premiums - but then again, if she can afford a Bentley Azure, it probably won't phase her one bit.

I just had to share a story where a Mercedes S Class is the cheapest car involved...

That is all.

Insert blonde joke here.

I'd like to own the body shoppe that gets to handle those repairs.
