20-minute joy ride is all this owner got when the Lamborghini got mutilated 01

If the Kia Carnival crashing right out of the dealer collection bay is painful then you really need to brace yourself from this. This brand-new Lamborghini crashed so badly 20 minutes after the owner collected the car from the showroom that it was completely written off.

The West Yorkshire Police in the UK uploaded a series of photos showcasing the Lamborghini whose rear-end was completely obliterated.

googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1685525140735-0'); });

There’s no question that the Lamborghini has been written off for good, and supercars being written off for good are not an uncommon sight.

But what makes this incident even more painful is that this particular car is fresh from the showroom and has only been on the road for 20 minutes.

And the accident was caused by no fault of its owner!

That’s right, the owner had only just collected the car and was cruising on the highway when it was hit with a mechanical failure.

It was later when the supercar was stranded when a van rammed into the rear-end of the car.

Lamborghini has some explaining to do, like why did a freshly collected car suffer from a mechanical failure so soon?

There isn’t a time in memory that doesn’t involve staring at cars. After discovering the excitement of watching Schumacher vs Hakkinen, Formula 1 became a major part of life. The love for cars and F1 ultimately led to a job with CAR Magazine. The untimely death of the magazine meant a hiatus from cars at lifestyle women’s magazine Marie Claire before another opportunity came knocking again.
