A 20-year-old has written off his dad's £275,000 Gumpert Apollo after taking it for a spin in Germany.
He lost control of the rear wheel drive supercar on a sharp bend near Brokdorf, just north of Hamburg.
After the crash the driver's door ended up 100ft (30m) away and the car was described as a "total loss".
The man was driving with a 19-year-old female passenger and both of them walked away from the accident with minor injuries.
Police are investigating whether he was speeding when he lost control of the car on the 50mph road.
The Gumpert Apollo has a top speed of 225mph (360kph) and goes from 0 to 60mph in less than three seconds.
looks like an airfield more than a sharp bend
Ooops.
Looks like a road after a Sharp bend to me. Probably put the power down too quick tank slappered on to the straight, back end hobbled off the tarmac and hey presto barrel role.
Bet his gf was impressed though
That's some dodgy parking that is.
I used to share a house with a systems analyst guy in wandsworth. He had a big powerful motorbike, a day-to-day car, and a TVR that lived in the garage, which he mostly polished and waxed and sometimes drove on a sunny sunday. It was his pride, it was his joy.
I got some cash and bought a new computer, which came in a very large box. which, while empty and searching for garage space, I put on the bonnet of his TVR.
He came into my room later going absolutely apeshit about some scratches on his TVR bonnet about 1AM. I laughed at him because I was drunk. Sorry for laughing Craig!
I think he got his own place shortly after that. boring but true.
**** me

rotfl, nah no way he was doing more than 50 to cause that amount of damage.

Luck favors the stupid.
Lucky it weren't me, Kev..... 😉
As for the original pic; that'll buff out, surely? I see worse than that still on the roads round here!
OUCH!
My 1st driving lesson with my Dad I drove my mums car into a concrete fencing post... it was however a fiat uno so..... erm.... no comparison really
Kevevs you take self deprecation to new levels!
bet his dad is just glad he is alive but who would let a 20 yeard old drive that car with his girlfriend and think he would drive sensibly
Luck favors the stupid.
What an idiotic thing to say. Do you know the actual circumstances of the crash? No you don't do you? And his gf wasn't driving, so is luck favouring her 'stupidity'? Is it? Hmm?
Anyway you're wrong because if you were right you'd've won the lottery by now...

So you actually improved it then?

MrNutt... you were just acknowledged by Elfin! You lucky bugger!
I really like the look of that car 🙂 Each to his own eh!
good grief, I say they were stupid then they are stupid till they prove themselves otherwise, to me, personally, through a series of tests.
Then and only then will I revise my decision.
No [i]you're[/i] stupid.
nice in blue, i wonder if they were doing things when he was driving.
50mph? Come off it...
sticks and stones you fascist-lite 😀
[i]bet his dad is just glad he is alive but who would let a 20 yeard old drive that car with his girlfriend and think he would drive sensibly [/i]
My guess would be dad didn't let him take the car, he just took it. German equivalent of Ferris Beuller.
"Sehen Sie, es wirklich einfach. Was Laufleistung legen wir auf, wir nehmen ab."
"Wie?"
"Wir werden nach Hause zurück zu fahren."
looks like an airfield more than a sharp bend
I'm guessing the car came to rest a few miles after the bend 😛
Police are investigating whether he was speeding
Lol! Have a wild guess.
luck favors the stupid
Is that your phrase of the day?
that will polish out no bother
The man was driving with a 19-year-old female passenger and both of them walked away from the accident with minor injuries.
Bet she will not forget that ride for a while 😉
My sis wrote off my mums car when I was 15, she crashed into a parked truck (honest). So my dad bought me my own car to trash, good result.
As punishment, this guy should be made to drive around in a Prius.
Lol, if daddy can afford a car like that he's just pleased his kid didn't get killed than bout the car. Bless. Hope he got laid at least 🙂
that will polish out no bother
I've taxed worse
A better ending than the young lad in America who drove his dad's M5 off the end of the runway outside Travolta's house.[url= http://forums.pelicanparts.com/off-topic-discussions/389453-five-young-men-killed-2008-bmw-m5-private-airstrip.html ]M5 crash.[/url]
