If you thought you were having a bad week, spare a thought for this guy in Thailand who watched on as his trailer carrying six exotic cars went up in flames.
During the week we brought you a video that featured a gorgeous Italian supercar going up in flames. Well, today we have footage of two Italian, two German and two British sports cars as they burn on the back of a transport trailer.
Petrol heads might want to look away now.
The cars in question look to be two Bentley Flying Spurs, a BMW X6M, a Mercedes-Benz E63, a Ferrari F430 Scuderia and a Lamborghini Murcielago LP640.
According to Jalopnik, the fire also destroyed the truck’s brake lines, which caused the trailer to free itself from the truck and block the highway all morning.
So how much does an accident like this cost to repair? Well, according to local reports the damage was an estimated to be around €2.5 million. Ouch.
According to Thailand’s Bangkok Post, the police said no one has claimed the ownership of the vehicles since the crash, and that the driver was transferring the cars from a showroom in Bangkok’s Rama 9 area to a petrol station in Si Sa Ket province on the Thai-Cambodia border, where they would be picked up by an “unknown person”.
Sounds a bit dodgy, if you ask us…
