If you had a supercar and that too one that is difficult to come by what would you do with it? Keep it in a glass case in your garage? Drive it at 20kmph to avoid any kind of accidents or damage? Drive it sparingly? Probably most us would be going by one of these options, but a certain Pagani Zonda owner, feeling charitable, decided to lend his car to his friends. The end result was brutal, to say the least. Not for the driver but for the car.
What does 1 million pound worth of car mean? It very much signals the exclusivity, the high-born house it comes from and also that it needs to be kept/driven carefully as spare parts are often hard to come by. But when a million pound car ends up looking like it went through a shredder then you know someone will be paying through their nose for it. Suffering this major heartbreak is Gareth Jones, a Scottish gas tycoon, who lent his Pagani Zonda GJ to his friends who ended up crashing the car somewhere just outside London. This incident comes close on the heels of news of another Pagani Zonda that was involved in a crash in Dubai earlier this month.
The model that went through the fence is called the Pagani Zonda GJ and it is a one-off version of the model. It had been delivered originally as a Pagani Zonda S, and is no stranger to accidents as it came out pretty badly injured in a crash back in 2009.
The supercar had since been rebuilt and it received a new name after the process, the Zonda GJ (the initials assumed to stand for Gareth Jones). Besides the new name, the car was done up with new front splitters, side skirts and side mirrors from the Cinque and some parts from the F and Tricolore.
So now you know how helping ‘friends’ can often turn nasty and pretty expensive in some cases.
Here are some heartbreaking images of the fate of the car
