How not to unload a V8 Vantage

Here’s a good example what happens when the delivery guys mess up. This over $100,000 Aston Martin V8 Vantage ended up at a 45-degree angle what looks to be in front of a dealership. We are not sure about the damages, but the rear does not look too good.

As you can see on the picture delivery guys are not too happy about it either. We would not want to be on these guys shoes if it happened in front of the guys house who ordered the car.

Pretty sure that Aston had the shipping insurance, but still not the kind of picture any Aston fan would want to see.

You know, the last time this was posted I noticed that the wheels were not stock. I kind of liked them. Now, looking at it closely, this car has GT4 skirts and an after market Carbon front treatment. So this was somebodies modified car, that was transported, not a delivery after purchase. I'd like to know the name of the transport company in case I ever need to send my car somewhere. And by the way, does anyone know how this situation was resolved?

Transport company? Probably NASA trying to launch their new space shuttle.
