A car jam in Germany was caused by a Ferrari FF, which just so happened to be engulfed in flames.

A 44-year old man was test-driving, yes that’s right test-driving, a Ferrari FF hatchback in Frankfurt, when he heard a loud bang. That’s when he looked in his rear view mirror and noticed flames coming from the back. We can conclude that it wasn’t exactly an engine problem as the V12 engine in the FF is located up front, like a boring normal car.

Thankfully the driver was able to jump out of the FF before the flames took total control of the vehicle. Sadly, unlike the driver, the car was a tad more than just ‘hurt’ and in need of some R&R. It was completely destroyed. Completely.

Ah well, that’s what happens when you take a V12 €370,000 Ferrari out for a test spin… wait a minute.

Below is a partial video of the flaming FF. Ferrari lovers, look away now:
