McLaren smashed up in car park

[Court_S]

This story flashed up on my Facebook newsfeed (not sure why as I do t read or follow the Mirror)...

A 570GT got hit really hard by an Audi that ended up on its side after hitting the 570 with the driver trapped inside the car.

The Mirror seemed more interested in how much the car cost rather than how the Audi ended up hitting it so hard in a car park.

Accelerator instead of brake?


Been done many times before. You press the accelerator thinking it’s the brake, car moves and you press the ‘brake’ harder and thus carnage ensues.

Is the McLaren damaged? It's difficult to tell.

A fine example of why you keep an old snotter for trips to adsa etc lol.

It'll buff out.

lol at the McLaren number plate blurring all lop-sided

That's going to be an oucher of an insurance claim if both cars are relatively new - £200k+

Wonder if it's an OAP if they couldn't extricate themselves from the Audi?

Funny enough, I've never been a fan of Macs, but the combo of white and the multispoke wheels appeals.

Or a good advert for getting your shopping delivered!

I guess the Audi driver thought he had one of these.

Quite possibly....is it a Q7 or similar?

[untakenname]

What's the odds that the Audi driver will have any driving charges levelled at them?

What kind of tank is that? Glorious looking thing.

[eliot]

Maybe they were mummy and daddy cars and were trying to make a McAudi

You're wasted here Timbo, surely the standup circuit would snap you up in a trice?

Looks like an Opel Omega to me

[Haltamer]

Maybe the Audi was getting closer to take a video?

This must win the car park ding thread.

As the Audi driver you must have a moment of thinking "of all the cars to hit like that, it's not the beaten up Clio, it has to be the £200k supercar".
