"borrowing" can be sometime the MOST expensive thing to do...

It was just a stinkin' imposter car. He should only have to pay in imposter pounds... Oh, wait, they're all imposter pounds now that they're off the gold standard.

he had both a replica and an original....... if you read the court case the driver was bonkers to let it go to court. A very expensive lesson i'm afraid.
