Title : A Sea of Red
Author : fredbassett
Fandom : Primeval
Rating : 12
Characters : Lester
Disclaimer : Not mine, no money made, don’t sue.
Spoilers : None
Summary : Written for [livejournal.com profile] primeval100 Challenge 277, Collateral Damage.
A/N : With thanks to Mr FB for technical advice.

Lester stared around at a scene of total carnage.

Red everywhere. Mangled beyond all hope of recognition.

An F430 Scuderia.

A 375 Superamerica.

A 360 Modena Berlinetta.

A 1982 Quattrovalvole.

A 348 Zagato Elaborazione.

A 1957 250 TR Testa Rossa. The last one to reach auction had sold for £8 million.

It was the equivalent of taking out the crowned heads of Europe in one fell swoop.

Only several times more expensive.

The herd of diplodocus were now standing in a nearby field, looking unconcerned, which was more than could be said for the members of the Ferrari Owners’ Club.

Oh dear.

I'm fairly sure most car insurance covers for death by diplodocus... lol.

Ah! Eek! I bet the car insurers have an exclusion clause somewhere for that sort of incident!

Great use of the prompt.

LOL!
Well, obviously not LOL if you're a Ferrari lover... but no, I'm unable not to laugh at the people with more money than sense. *g*

I like that one a lot! :-)

LOL that was a hoot!
Poor cars. . .
I wonder what sort of exclusion the insurance companies will come up with for 'death by diplodocus' !

I thought it was a heap of red wine that they'd taken out. LOL. Shows how little I know about wine or cars!

Love the humour - though of course there is the tragedy ;)

Oops. I imagine the insurance claims will be interesting ;)
