Oh dear, if you live in the USA and you are waiting for a nice new Volkswagen or Porsche, there is some bad news, the car carrier Felicity Ace has caught fire. The good news is the crew have abandoned ship and have been rescued.

Between this (relatively small but unfortunate in the grand scheme of things) and the Chip shortage that has impacted VW more than most, it has been a tough period for VAG and its customers.

Those waiting on their new cars will no doubt feel this more than VAG as it will be able to claim on the insurance.

Admittedly, these incidents are a bit old now but let's feel it for "our" friends.
A container ship dubbed Golden Ray that overturned off the coast of Georgia back in September still rests in its watery grave nearly six months after the initial accident. All 24 crew members made it out alive, but the ship’s cargo did not, as photos taken with the help of a lidar show.
As we initially reported, the 71,000-ton vessel belongs to Hyundai Glovis, the transportation arm of automaker Hyundai. The thousands of vehicles being transported were reportedly Kias and other models belonging to other global manufacturers, although based on the photos shown it appears that some of them are Chevrolet Tahoes or Suburbans.

I live near Immingham and the 2nd lot of pics is from our local rag. 2018. feel it for all those who waited months and got within touching distance.

So they aren't as tough as the make out then?
Or maybe it was just a bridge too far?
