Saw this on the Top Gear website, someone has a brand new Peugeot 307, and wants to crush it into a cube and deliver it back to the dealer! :P

The guy running the site wants to raise £13k to buy a Toyota, and anything over goes to charity. Might be worth £1 to help him on his way, just to see the dealers reaction when / if he crushes the car :P
