    Seems like a waste :(

    It was a Cat B, at best it could've been used for parts and should never have been on the road. It sounds like there's more to it than he's letting on.

      I really don't understand this category thing UK has going on. That cat B Ferrari is still way safer on the road than any rusty Vauxhall. Or any 15 year old car for that matter. If it's financially feasible to repair the car then I can't see how it can possibly be crashed beyond the point of reducing safety.
      Not even mentioning the fact how big of a waste it is to crush the whole car not just the chassis. The engine did nothing wrong.

        In a world obsessed with environmentalism, recycling and carbon emissions, it does seem somewhat hypocritical and crass...

              Smart thinking. That's why our police don't.
