I don't like this 'dan' character. Not exactly the right place to lose control of the car in either

Thats looks to be fairly well munted. What a knobhead.

Wonder how much the wreckers will be flogging off the engine and gearbox for?

On a more serious note, what a shame that such a nice car ended up like that.

On that note....

Why did God invent Holdens?
To stop D!ckheads driving Fords.

And in that vein, the guy should've been driving a Monaro - or at least a VT commonwhore with a Monaro body kit!

New Zealander ... thats all im going to say. Ok nah

Seriously i didnt think there was a solitary GT40 in Aus or NZ, guess im wrong. There's at at least 1 or well their was one. Makes you think though the guy had enough brains to afford one, yet he doesnt seem to have any sense when it comes to driving one.

Considering that particular model was a limited run, I think he's just increased the worth of every other GT by a few cents...

On another note, it's a plain ol' "GT"!!! Not a GT40. But bloody hell, they look freakin'-sensational in black.
