Car accidents happen all the time, but some of them are more unfortunate than others. One such happened recently in the UK when the owner of a 2017 Ferrari 488 GTB smashed his car after just 3 kilometers.
Exactly how the accident happened is not known. According to the published photos, the car hit the protective fence and ended up on the roadside due to the force of the impact. The headlights are broken, the bonnet is bent, damage is also visible on the front bumper, the front part of the wheel arches, while the rest of the car is intact.
Police said no one was injured in the crash, except perhaps the driver’s ego. By the way, Ferrari is painted in Rosso Corsa color, and so far it has had two owners. It is equipped with a Carbon package that includes carbon components and a slightly higher price, while it has 21,565 kilometers on the odometer.
