and in cherry red too
After purchasing a flashy cherry-red Ferrari, a driver crashed the vehicle just two miles away from the dealership.
In one of the more expensive crashes to happen on a UK road, an unnamed man purchased what is believed to be a Ferrari 488 for £250,000. Just show miles away from the dealership, the owner totalled it in Derby.
The crash happened on April 1, leaving the owner with one hell of an expense.
The driver was uninjured in the collision, but the same cannot be said for his beautiful car.

The post has seen a great deal of attention, where one person wrote: “Bloody moron.”
“The number of these hired out as pre wedding celebrations in Sandwell nr Birmingham is scary. Racing around the streets showing off,” another wrote. “I imagine they’re difficult to control due to the power. A bright yellow one shot past me this week.”
😂😂 sorry, but it proves that money cannot buy you talent. Enough money to buy a Ferrari, enough talent to drive a shopping trolley. https://t.co/VVEkwy8E1U

Another pointed out: “Sorry, but it proves that money cannot buy you talent. Enough money to buy a Ferrari, enough talent to drive a shopping trolley.”
“Correct me if I’m wrong but don’t we need separate tests for different power motorbikes & need to have the licence for the previous cat for a period of time b4 moving on to the next?” another user questioned. “If so why don’t we do the same for cars? Stops those who pass in a Mini, drive away in a Ferrari.”
