I read a story about a fella who owned a Piaggio Ape (a three wheeler scooter/van thing that you often see selling coffee to overpaid office monkeys). He used this van for work (handyman). One night he woke to a crashing sound. What happened was thieves broke into the van, found nothing to pinch, then tipped it onto its side (three wheels see and very light too). It wrote the van off (£2255) Lost him his business and almost his marriage through money difficulty
