Your odd, more odd than me and thats saying something.
Why would it suck to be him ? do you honestly think that a written off £300k car is going to even put a stress on him whatsoever ?
Next you say he shouldn't be speeding yet you have no proof he was, its sad that people start these wrongs on the internet, its like kids in a playground.Living MY dream.0 -

"This car is known in London but I had never seen it before. From YouTube videos he enjoys revving the engine to create exhaust flames"
"Graham Schultz of supercar specialists Modena Group estimated the repair bill at £90-£100,000"I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles0 -

So I am odd for thinking it sucks to be someone who has done £100k worth of damage to a car by racing in the streets of London. Either he was racing or he is a shit driver, because the other car barely comes into his lane and does so very slowly. Anyway your fawning over anything based on the ticket price is getting old fast, why not go to a forum that discusses the toys of the rich exclusively. You clearly think someone's bank balance is the sole measure of their happiness and worth, sucks to be you.
Interesting that the repair bill was only £100k, you must have been talking out of your a-hole again. You really are a know it all knobber who can't get his facts straight. You should go and get some counselling somewhere for all your mental issues.0 -

You need help. Your inability to wind me up to a level that suits you results in you insulting me and everyone is reading this and laughs at you. Your funny. You please me.

I don't freak out. I can honestly say that you are yet to upset me. We don't know each other. I see you as a keyboard warrior who hides behind the PC and probably wouldn't say anything to my face. It's funny. Please continue.

Still it is amusing watching you be proven wrong time and again. This thread is another example, the car was not written off despite your assertions.0 -
So some dude guestimates that the damage would be between 90-100k.
Has this yet to be proven ? Nope,it's been posted on the tinternet so must be true !?!?!?!.
Who's to say that after a proper inspection the car was indeed not salvageable ?
The outcome of the car is not known.

Personally I would prefer to trust the head of a company that specialises in carbon repair for lamborghini instead of Vtech, someone with a history of talking out of his backside.upperoilcan wrote:So some dude guestimates that the damage would be between 90-100k.

I worked on this very car. I've worked on countless Aventador's and the car will go back to the factory before a repair is diagnosed. That's common sense.
You keep saying I lie yet you have never proven that. You make things up to hear it towards me lying.
Thing is, I have nothing to lie about. It's quite laughable.
People are laughing at you and sending me
Pm's about it. It's very funny and as I said before. You amuse me so please carry on.

Actually, I've just had a reply from a question I asked of Performance Direct, they insure almost all
Of the cars we work on as well as most of the imports and cars driven by Saudi clients and they say that on an average the car will be written off at around 70% of the RESALE value.
So the car is worth £235,000 and the resale value of a repaired Aventador will be around 50-70% of a perfect example and that is based on the fact that you may or may not find a buyer (who would buy a cat C/D supercar???) so that puts the resale value at around £164,000 tops !
That figure is getting close to the write off value when the repair bill as you guesstimated as £100,000 (plus vat of course so £120,000)
That said. Talk is that this car will not be out back on the road and rather tested at Lamborghini for same to the tub. Obviously I can't confirm that because it is still subject of a police enquiry and then of an insurance claim and notoriously neither give out details to people not directly involved.
I hope I've cleared up any issues you have but if your still unsure feel free to ask, or as you prefer, argue with me Living MY dream.0 -
You have talked crap in countless threads. There is a current thread that parodies you but clearly everyone who posted in it is a loon. Have fun with your PMs.VTech wrote:I worked on this very car.

Apparently, you have to care about someone to worry about them and remember this, I don't follow you into your posts. However, you seem to have a habit of following me my friend.
If your that concerned about the way I live my life why not pop down for a weekend. I'll take you on a real adventure and you can them decide if it's your thing.
Of course I already know the answer. Your the type who will politely decline the invite, followed by a backhanded stab to the ribs with yet further insults.
Never mind. Try and chill my friend, your beginning to get as stressed as I am. And that's not a good thing !Living MY dream.0 -
It was you who thought it was a good idea to start throwing out insults for no good reason following a post I made so you need to stop talking out your backside. I am not concerned about your life, I just think you are a bell and if you want to start insulting me then happy to trade it back.
No, I don't want to pop down for a weekend, it wouldn't change my opinion of you.
I am not sure why you think I would be stressed by an Internet forum but go have some valium if you are struggling...0 -

Well I have to admit that this is the weirdest dating ceremony I've ever been in.
Usually I approach a sexy girl, show her my Patek Philippe and offer her a drink. Hopefully she says yes and I order her whatever she wanted and they say "damn, I left the wallet in the Ferrari, let me just go grab it"
After that it's a done deal !
Actually that is a lie, sometimes I wear a Rolex and arrive in a lambo or if I'm feeling risqué I wear a breitling and use the bentley. If you haven't guessed, I struggle making up my mind. Living MY dream.0 -
VTech, you're full of shit. I demand you take ME out for a weekend of super car racing to prove otherwise

Its now a full time job for people taking pics and videos of super cars in london.
A good friend of mine is making £100k+ a year without breaking sweat doing just that and at 1.2p per view and with videos often getting well over a million views it isn't hard to figure the numbers out.Living MY dream.0 -

Being from the North I have no idea why anyone would do this - someone takes pictures of super cars, posts them on internet (where?) and gets 1.2p from whom for doing so? and why? Sorry if this is a stupid question but I just don't get it. Please be gentle if it is a stupid question.0 -

I quite enjoy VTech's crap. I just wish he would learn the difference between you're and your.
PS I reckon it will buff out. Maybe a tube or two of araldite for the worst bits.0 -

Not at all, I've been asked this before by friends who have no idea why anyone would do it but to answer.
Successful car bloggers will run a website and then post videos on the internet that carry a mandatory advertisement to which the poster of that video can get paid, this varies but can easily be 1.2p and when you have a monthly view of over 5,000,000 you can see where it adds up.
Now of course I will get the usually 4 biatch but the above is factual, there is nothing special anymore in the "serious blogger world" bout earning £100k/year. of course there will be plenty wishing they did earn it but for the people out there who have the following and the views, they are seriously raking it in.
If you took the minimum view count of $7 per 1000 views and you had a monthly view rate of 5,000,000 (using that as the guy who posted this hits that figure so I believe it relevant) you can see that bottom rate your looking at $35,000 or £21,875 and if you hit a wonder story like the one we are referring too which hits over 5,000,000 in the first 2 days and sure to hit over 10,000,000 you can really see how it pays off and thats at bottom rate view value !!!
London is teaming with wannabe bloggers, they are the new paparazziLiving MY dream.0 -
Indeed, there is a lot of money to be made posting videos on YouTube, if you get the views.
This guy makes a considerable amount from videos. They are a bit Marmite, some love them and some get really upset by them, but they all seem to love watching them.0 -
Well I never. Thanks for the info.0
