Doug Howlett will be forced to cough up more than $26,000 for his booze-fuelled antics - and the British man who owns the late-model BMW the All Black trashed is adamant he still wants an apology. Doug Howlett will be forced to cough up more than $26,000 for his booze-fuelled antics - and the British man who owns the late-model BMW the All Black trashed is adamant he still wants an apology. New details of Howlett’s drunken rampage have emerged - including that witnesses say the winger wore a hotel planter on his head during the car-smashing. He jumped on two cars outside Heathrow airport’s Hilton Hotel after drinking with teammates and management following the World Cup quarterfinal defeat to France. <span class="intext"> <script type='text/javascript'></script><noscript><a href='http://www.autoracingdaily.com/0pen@ds/www/delivery/ck.php?n=abcb3366&cb=INSERT_RANDOM_NUMBER_HERE' target='_blank'><img src='http://www.autoracingdaily.com/0pen@ds/www/delivery/avw.php?zoneid=47&cb=INSERT_RANDOM_NUMBER_HERE&n=abcb3366' border='0' alt='' /></a></noscript> </span> Scotland Yard has dropped charges against him. Human resources director David Poole, 52, from Nottingham, returned from overseas to find the roof of his 2005 BMW 3-series caved in and dents on the bonnet - with repairs amounting to 5000. The NZRU has estimated the total repair bill for both cars is £10,000 (NZ$26,670) - which will come out of Howlett’s pocket. http://www.autoracingdaily.com/16628/
