The world's most expensive car crash?

From The Metro:

US businessman Christopher Cox was involved in the world's most expensive car crash when the Ferrari 250 GTO he was driving collided with another vehicle.

???

I'd like to nominate the opening lap of the 1998 Belgian Grand Prix, probably there are even more legendary car crashes than that.

Puts my car park shunt into perspective I suppose. I still blame the bollard though.

AKH, that depends. It might have been an irreplaceable bollard, hand carved by Michelangelo or something.

Gary Hart's record will be hard to beat.

JB, I'd forgotten how awful that was.
