    Ferrari driver wrecks £200,000 car just ONE HOUR after buying as supercar bursts into




    From this.




    To this in one hour.




    A Ferrari driver managed to wreck his £200,000 super car just ONE HOUR after driving from out the show room.


    The high-performance Ferrari 430 Scuderia was reduced to a twisted wreck after it careered off a motorway and burst into flames in a field.
    But luckily the new owner had a miracle escape from the terrifying smash - walking away with only cuts and bruises.


    The car ended up a twisted mess in a field after flying off the M1 through South Yorkshire and hurtling down 50 meters down a bank and ended up in a field.
    It then caught fire and had to be extinguished by firefighters following the expensive prang on Thursday afternoon.

    There was a Lamborghini driver, female, who wrote off her car in Parnel, Auckland, also within an hour (or was it a day?) of driving off the sales lot. About ten years ago, circa.

    I guess they can afford it. No skin off my nose.

    ^ No it won't.

    Looks like he'll need a new door on the passenger side.

    ^ Admit, but nothing you can't get from the breakers' yard.

    Read on here a while ago about a Thai bird who bought a new car and got wrote it off as she drove it out of the show room.
    She didn't know how to drive.

    ^c'mon...you know as well as I do that it was not a case of falling asleep at the wheel, but just the opposite: Revved up and speeding to "see what she can do".

    Lucky, I say. The damage would have been worse because the red ones are faster.
    The ones with a stripe down the side are even faster.

    The side view mirror on the driver's side will need replaced too.

    Whatever, the fact that the driver walked away alive from that mess has to be good for Ferrari.

    Not to mention another one on order.

    They are not the easiest of cars to drive, they along with Porsche and other supercar makers used to give driving lessons prior to your first purchase.
