Sorry I damaged your £42k purchase

What do you say to a buyer when they’ve won your auction on eBay and you then break their purchase? Well that’s the situation Lewis Hamilton the rising F1 star is in – having sold a kart for £42,100 for charity he’s taken it for a spin around a specially built track in London and pranged it. You can see the video on the BBC website!

Thankfully the event was organised to promote one of the McLaren-Mercedes sponsors – Vodafone, who are launching their new Mobile Internet service so the McLaren team are picking up the repair bill for a new rear axle. A good reminder that if you want one last play with your favourite possession do it before you list it on eBay, not after :-p
