Rumor about 1M crash #5: Dutch journalist

[Artemis]

According to Autoblog.nl (July 31) another 1M was crashed this Summer. This time the Oscar of the Hall Of Shame apparently goes to a journalist of a Dutch car magazine reviewing/testing the 1M. Autoblog.nl prefers not to disclose further details yet about the crash but confirmed to know the identity of both the Dutch journalist and car magazine.

Translation:
"Further it appears that a Dutch journalist of a car magazine has crashed one [1M]"
Q (comment): "To which journalist and car magazine reference was made in the text [article]? Does someone know that?"
A (Autoblog.nl): "We know it But for now we still keep it secret from which magazine that journalist was."

Original text:
"Ook schijnt een Nederlandse journalist van een autoblad er eentje kort te hebben gereden."
Q (comment): "Welke journalist en van welk autoblad was dat waar de tekst naar verwijst. Weet iemand dat?"
A (Autoblog.nl): "Wij weten het Maar houden nog ff geheim van welk blad die journalist was."

If this info is confirmed, and the Top Gear mishap resulting into a damaged 1M spoiler is not considered as a "crash", then this is supposed to be official 1M crash #5.

this is confirmed, though i'd be surprised if this were only the 5th... i'm sure for every one we hear about there are 2 or 3 we don't.

One was totaled in Orange County as well. Black on Black.

Do we want or need to keep count?

Ah, no. It's insult to injury if your the one in an accident, only to find people gawking over the aftermath. Not only that, but these are people. Not sure if I've seen someone yet say: "gosh, I hope everyone is alright"! Think about the people, not numbers.
