Unfortunately got no pics but saw the aftermath of an M6 being in a light collision with a Ford Focus.

It happened just off the roundabout where the dealer is located, the car had the APPROVED USED CAR plates on.

looked like what was a minor collison made alot worse by the M6 jumping over the central grass reservation on to the opposite carriageway.

I went past twice while going about my business, once in either direction about half an hour apart.

first impression was just some minor damage to the N/S/F wing and bumper but the jump over the grass reservation had obviously taken its toll on the poor M6 - the nearside rear wheel was at a nasty angle. It was being dragged on to a low loader on my second pass. The Focus appeared to have driven away.

So, if you are in the market for a used M6 in grey, I would not be getting the one from Derek Woodman BMW - not that it will be on sale for a while until it is fixed (presuming it wasnt more damage than my drive-by could see.)

I know I know - this thread is useless without pics!!!
