And then a 20 mil McClaren crashed.
These cars were traveling down South, for the Bruce McClaren run.
I just happened to be in town, and saw em all squeezing into the local BP gas station.
Took a vid, watched local people rubbernecking, myself included.
While these type of car don't really interest me, the fact that Bruce McClaren was a Kiwi was something to be proud of. It was prety cool, and I showed several people the vid, even banged of a few screen shots to my friends overseas.
Well, two days later, we hear that the most expensive McClaren on the run,had crashed, down near Queenstown, which is a tourist town, down toward the bottom of the Island.
These cars are worth around a cool mil each, but the one that crashed, on a straight piece of road, is said to be worth twenty mil.

Pretty crazy, the lifestyles of the rich. Who spends twenty mil on one car?
Someone who can, I guess. I wonder what else the owner has in his shed. :D

If they didn't have those they'd be driving the price up on our rusty relics. ;D
