If the DVSA figure is correct, then in back-of-an-envelope figures, that's 1274 x (say 5 hrs at say £70) = say £450K. Then add the trailering costs, say 1274 x (say £150 twice) = say another £350K. Oh and loss of sales in the meantime, loss of goodwill and brand reputation. If I was Massimo I would be very very worried about this.

I suspect there will have been a conversation between Steve, Massimo and the brake Master cylinder supplier, before we all go jumping to unknown conclusions and possible costings innocent unless you already know who will be footing the bill of course ?

What MMC does not need right now is more negativity being spread at this very difficult moment - just saying thumbs
