A gutted motorist has been left counting the cost after their £500,000 Ferrari supercar was involved in head-on smash - leaving their pride and joy a mangled wreck.
Photographs released by the fire service show the badly-damaged Ferrari SF90 after it was involved in the crash in Halesowen, West Mids.
The 211mph luxury motor - dubbed the 'quickest car of the decade' - was discovered at the scene by emergency services on Wednesday night.
The front end of the vehicle, which goes from 0-124mph in 6.7 seconds, was left a crumpled mess while bits of the car can also be seen strewn over the road.
Nobody is believed to have been injured in the collision which happened at around 7.40pm. Haden Cross Fire Station shared the images on Twitter and wrote: "RTC Hagley Road, Halesowen- White Watch attended. Please be careful when out and about."
One web user replied: "Obviously too powerful for somebody to handle."
Another added: "Looks nasty, how gutted would you be?? Hope everyone is ok."
A third wrote: "That's gonna cost some serious money to put right. I'd be devastated, that car cost more than my house."
