We’ve had plenty of smashed Ferrari Enzos but this is the first on records people have come across images of a wrecked Bugatti Veyron. It’s thought that a pool of water on the road caused the supercar to lose traction and then spin out of control.
Engineers reportedly wrecked two prototype examples during testing, which was part of the reason for the long delays during the vehicle’s development but this is the first time a private customer has actually crashed a Veyron.

A Lamborghini Murcielago that was involved in an accident with two other cars. The big bull was involved in a smash with three other cars and a bus and the ensuing chaos shut down part of Wolverhampton, a city in the West Midlands. The £190,000 Lambo smashed into a Rover 45 and Toyota Avensis. Nobody was seriously hurt, except the poor owner of the Lambo who’ll now have a lot of explaining to do with his insurance company.

Reports are that the driver was speeding and lost control. Around fifteen Enzos have been crashed ( http://auto.commongate..../tag/crash ), including five of which were totalled. Six to eight more have been or are being repaired, and this one is repairable as well.

The latest was not an Enzo... The story of this accident is interesting. The crash happened at the front of a well known hotel in Perth (Australia). The driver was at the hotel, drank too much and then decided to drive his Ferrari home, as he was taking off through the intersection he decided to show off in front of the ladies at the hotel and hey presto became an instant moron; he simply lost control of the back end of the Ferrari. You need to be very alert to drive the 360 hard, the fact that this guy was pissed off his head didn't leave him...
