Från Ferrari till skrot på fyra minuter

Inlägg av jajo »

Från The Sun:
It is every motor enthusiast's dream to drive a Ferrari. But for Simon Nimmo it turned out to be the worst nightmare of his life. According to The Sun, the managing director of city mortgage firm waited a year to collect his new Ferrari. He splashed out 175,000 pounds on the rare 575 F1 supercar and then wrecked it completely four minutes later. Simon drove the car into a giant pothole less than four minutes after pulling off the forecourt of the Maranello Garage in Egham, Surrey. The collision smashed one of the 2, 000 pound wheels and cracked the Ferrari's front suspension. "It was a total nightmare for him. He had been looking forward to collecting the Ferrari for months. He must hold the world record for the fastest Ferrari driver to wreck his brand new super car," a company spokesman was quoted as saying.
