Someone binned their 360 spider on Saturday, shame it was a nice car. Anyone know how it happened?

I was there but left around lunchtime, didn't see it myself. Apparently was just off (literally) the A303

Sadly I know a wee bit too much about this. I was in the passenger seat frown

Both the driver and I are ok, thank goodness. The car split into 3 bits.

We both have to thank Ferrari for building an amazing car. This could have been so much worse.

I saw your car embedded in the trees and feared the worst. Great to hear that you are both OK as it was playing on my mind all the way home.

Getting the car out must have been tricky for the recovery team.

Again I'm pleased your OK, genuinely.

Glad you were both ok.
Can i ask what were the 3 sections that remained? The 355s,360s,F430s Enzos ect usually break/separate the engine and rear subframe away from the car in big side impact. The mounting bolts sheer from the rear bulk head to dissipate energy.
So i am interested to know what was the 3rd piece that broke away.
