  • End of the road for $400,000 Lamborghini. And you thought you were having a bad day.













    Witnesses said the driver has hit the tree head on, and the car has spun 360° to head up the street it then rolled back into the power pole.


    Voted the world's most beautiful supercar, a rare Lamborghini Murcielago – worth more than $400,000 – suffered a tragic fate when it smashed into a power pole.

    The female driver was heading through the upmarket Auckland suburb of Parnell about 7.45am yesterday when the car crashed, police said.

    The silver-coloured luxury Italian sportscar – a 2002 version of Lamborghini's flagship model – was one of only about 10 in New Zealand.

    It was not known if the driver was speeding. She was taken to Auckland Hospital with moderate injuries.

    The car's previous owner, Mark Granger, sold it privately just 10 days earlier, but it would "not be going anywhere in a hurry now", he said.

    News of the crash also reached Auckland car dealership Independent Prestige. Lamborghini brand manager Greg Brinck said he was familiar with the car and surprised it had crashed. "Judging by where it occurred, it's almost like something untoward happened. . . . they certainly don't crash very often."

    The Murcielago is a 580-horsepower, 4WD vehicle with a V12 engine that can reach speeds of more than 330km/h.

    This happened a few days ago. It made the headline news, made many papers, and was talked about in plenty of NZ forums. Ok now here's the ironic part, the owner listed the car on NZ's main auction webiste before the crash. Some of the comments are funny left by people on the auction.

      It makes you want to cry, spare a thought for the FEMALE driver. LOL.

      I'd say if the owner and her are a couple they'd be sleeping in seperate beds for a while.

        "a 2002 version of Lamborghini's flagship model – was one of only about 10 in New Zealand."

        Can't they say the exact number... I mean if it is that small. Or do they think that there are more Lamborghinis (not counting the stolen ones :P)

        And that's another proof that women shouldn't drive a sport car.... or they shouldn't drive any car :P
        Are there any women on jp.net forum ????

          Only about 2 that post.

          You better run, your gonna get a mouthfull from them I only hinted that women were bad driver's.

          Letting a women drive a Lambo is like giving a gun to a baby. Oops did I say that out loud?

                I believe it was actually a chick - (As Mess pointed out)

                So much for European quality and safety. You can see why Ferrari only let authorised drivers behind the wheel of their cars.

                      Eh, not to serious. Just send it over the pond to West Coast Customs, they'll repair and pimp it . Just make sure it isn't given back to the driver(ette) .
