Whats left of it looks bloody ugly, kind of like a Ford Ka, ugly. He must have sold a lot of butter chicken to buy that car.
Does it have a sticker on the back that says "my other car is a Camry" ?

What is really disturbing about this is the fact that the Richard head might have taken out a pregnant woman in her car minding her own business.

Default Bugatti Veyron OWNED *pics*

Bugatti Veyron that crashed in heavy rain on the B375 near Chertsey in Surrey. The Veyron costs £800,000. The Veyron has a top speed of around 250mph and accelerates from 0-60mph in 2.5 seconds. Only 300 Bugatti Veyron cars have been built. This car is thought to be one of only about 12 in Britain. It collided with a Vauxhall Astra before crashing into trees at the roadside.







I would be really sad if I were the owner. e
