BOTH drivers flee roundabout smash between £80,000 Porsche 718 and £150,000 Ferrari 458 Italia - leaving takeaway curry all over the German car's windscreen

The drivers of two supercars abandoned their two vehicles in the road and fled after they were involved in a horrific smash last night. Police were called to the crash between a Ferrari 458 Italia and a Porsche 718 Cayman GTS.

The 26-year-old driver of the Porsche is known to have suffered minor injuries, but the driver of the Ferrari was not at the scene and Police are appealing for information to trace him and any passengers.

The red £80,000 Porsche rolled over and lost both rear wheels in the accident, and somehow ended up with a take-away curry across the windscreen.

The £150,000 Ferrari suffered heavy damage on the front of the passenger side. Both of the vehicle's airbags had deployed in the force of the crash. The crash, which resulted in more than £230,000 worth of damage, took place at around 7.55pm last night in South Yorkshire.

Good grief :judge: :cop:
 
Quick bash with a hammer and a lick of paint and they will be back on a forecourt in Keighley before you know it!


:)
 
I'm going to Keighley tomorrow. I'll pop in and see what they're on for. :floor:
No doubt description will be "one lady owner" on both cars. Never tracked either

Top floor, just getting the final touches of a valet done then ready for the "showroom"
 
According to Tom Hartley his son Carl was involved so it wasn't a hire car scenario. Both drivers fled the scene, the Porsche driver returned and was arrested. No comment or sign of Carl Hartley, one wonders why people felt the need to flee. The private plate on the Ferrari at the time of the crash is registered to a veyron
Interesting indeed.
 
Curious.....

Apparently the car was for sale on the Hartley website prior to the crash, Sale or Return :grin:

Smacks to me of drink driving to flee the scene of an accident like that :roll:
 
The comments are the best bit :floor: :floor: :floor:
