Rare Ferrari Enzo Worth Rs 18.6 Crore Crashes Into A Tree

If luxury cars make you want to buy them, you might want to hold onto your seat for what you are about to find out - a rare ?2.5 million Ferrari Enzo tragically crashed into a tree on Tuesday.

According to reports, the accident took place in the town of Baarn, just southeast of Amsterdam, Netherlands. The person responsible for the crash was a dealership mechanic. Fortunately, he escaped from the accident without sustaining any injuries. He was taken to the hospital for a check-up. An eyewitness said, ¡°The local Ferrari dealer is about two kilometres away from the scene. It's a customer-owned car."

¡°The Weather conditions were damp and chilly, maybe three degrees in temperature. It hit a tree stump at the side of the road. It hit it on the passenger side and the stump was damaged. Not sure what happened, but I think he wanted to turn right back to the dealership," added the eyewitness.

Only 400 Enzos left the Ferrari production line between 2002 and 2004.

Despite costing ?450,000 at launch, Enzos have massively increased in value. A 2003 Ferrari Enzo was sold in August 2021 by RM Sotheby's for $3,360,000 (?2,463,132).

If you are a car-lover, you must have heard of Grand Tour's Richard Hammond who got behind the wheel of the car that almost killed him 16 years ago.

Hammond was injured in a Vampire dragster while filming a segment for Top Gear back in September 2006. He had been travelling in the jet-powered car, which can reach speeds of up to 370mph, at Elvington Airfield near York when one of the front tyres failed, causing the presenter to lose control.

The frightening incident resulted in Hammond suffering a significant brain injury and being in a coma for two weeks. Thankfully, he survived the crash and is now back to normal life.
