TdF in Tuscan crash horror - photos

[Big_M]

Pistonheader Tony de Ferry had his brand new Tuscan smashed up today by his 16 year old son who was at the wheel. The Tuscan was hit head on by a Renault Megane which was undamaged in a hit and run incident at the local airfield. Thankfully no one was injured - although he is still chasing his son with a crowbar

Any guesses to the cost of repairs (to the car - not his son) or is this a write off?
