Its the Fiesta which you can see on Google Streetview (link above) and I have it on good, albeit secondary, authority - my ex lives under a bridge near there.

I realise there may be significantly more damage hidden than the front offside that you can see in the pictures, but sheesh does it really sit that low to the ground? That must be nigh on impossible to go anywhere without scraping the front on the ground at some point in your journey, and I'd guess most people would even struggle to get it off their drives.
that Mclaren is about as practical as a tank for the congested and terrible roads of England, i cant see how driving that car can be an enjoyable experience and probably leads to fustration and incidents like ramming into a row of cars while going 'easy' on the right foot.

Sometimes I come here and mistake this for a car enthusiasts’ forum but it’s usually short lived.

Heard a rumour that was Paul Bailey's car. If it is he's not what you might call lucky is he...

No, it’s not Paul Bailey, the owner is fairly local and has another few exotics. This will get fixed.

The wreckage is consistent with that. McLaren has run into the rear right corner of the silver car, pushing it into the back of the white car, and continuing on until the silver car is on its side and the white car has been pushed out into the middle of the road. There looks to be a line of parked cars along the verge that these vehicles are sort of still in line with.

The McLaren May have also been spun around anti clockwise because of the impact to its front left corner. What’s confusing is I think that the pictures were taken after the McLaren has been moved from its resting place and lined up ready to be hauled onto the low loader.

How the McLaren ended up running into the back of a parked car at clearly some speed to have caused so much damage is anyone’s guess.

This happened about 10 mins up the road from me, the local FB pages are reporting that the Maclaren hit the parked cars.

I'm guessing driving like a tt was involved at some point, most likely in the last 300 yards!

Interesting to see how much, if any, damage to the carbon tub on it as the chassis leg has been exposed from those pictures, and that wheel probably has pushed back into the carbon tub I suspect...

Could get even more expensive if there is damage around that area.

I Wasn't there but there are usually cars parked there and I have seen the senna been driven very "enthusiasticly" through a quite area of thorpe bay in the last week. Make of that what you will haha.

Presumably a case of "watch this" as mentioned above + preformance track tyres vs the cold and lots of bhp
