Guest Simon* Report post Posted August 11, 2009 Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond was involved in a four-car pile-up in the weekend while driving a $NZ268,000 supercar, a British newspaper has reported. The TV star was driving his beloved Morgan Aeromax at the time of the crash. Hammond's Aeromax is one of only 100 ever produced. Police told the paper no one was injured and that they only attended the scene to deal with the traffic build-up. One witness said there was some "good-natured banter" when the other drivers realised who it was, the Daily Mirror reported. Hammond made headlines in 2006 when he was nearly killed while test-driving a jet car for the popular TV show. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JiB 2 Report post Posted August 11, 2009 Wikipedia tells me that the Aeromax has a BMW V8. In a car that is possibly close to a tonne. Awesome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
