[Malaka2]

Bugatti EB110

Number ten most expensive car accident when the Bugatti EB110 1992 is being driven by a mechanic as part of an annual inspection. He claims there is an oil spill on the road which caused him to lose control and hit a pole. Owner of the Bugatti is the famous “feel good” guru named Emile Ratelband. Not sure how well he felt after this crash.

9. Pagani Zonda C12 S – $ 650,000

Number nine most expensive car accident is Zonda C12 S. This car only made 15 units, but that did not stop this owner from driving it like a bat out of hell. He crashed this beauty in the wee morning hours while driving in Hong Kong.

8. Mercedes Benz SL 300 – $ 750,000

Mercedes Benz 300 SL “Gullwing” accident is one of the most expensive car accident. This is a classic car. Unfortunately, there is more than one accident involving this work. You’re looking at a car that was once worth nearly a million dollars. The owner thought it would be a good idea to race on the streets of Mexico. No, not a road race, but the annual “La Carrera Panamericana” race which is limited to classic cars produced before 1965.

7. Jaguar XJ220 – $ 1 Million

Number seven for most expensive car is Jaguar XJ220 accident. The XJ220 once held the record for highest top speed for a production car (217 mph). Along with this speed come a few crashes. It first shows the classic pose of the owner of the car, amazed by what you just did. This guy is void of all emotion, staring blankly into space, thinking about how he would explain this to his wife.

6. McLaren F1 – $ 1.25 Million

McLaren F1 accident is ranked sixth as the most expensive car accident in the world. McLaren F1 took over the Jaguar XJ220 not only in price, but also the highest top speed of 231 mph. (Damage only in 2005). One of the car accidents was driven by Rowan Atkinson, the popular actor who played “Mr. Bean”. Atkinson has the unfortunate history of crashing multiple exotic cars, including Aston Martin.

5. Ferrari Enzo – $ 1.3 Million

The fifth rank for most expensive is the Ferrari Enzo car accident. Ferrari Enzo sure seems to attract a lot of crashes. This is surprising considering the price. You would think the owner would be more careful, but we have documented at least 14 crashes involving the Enzo. That’s nearly $ 20 million worth of crashes! The most famous was the Malibu crash of 2005, when the driver, hit, “Fat Steven” Eriksson car at 196 mph.

4. Bugatti Veyron – $ 1.6 Million

Buggati Veyron is the most expensive car in the world. Bugatti Veyron is the most expensive production car in history. Only 300 are expected to be produced and already two have crashed. Below is the first. The driver thought it was okay for a speed of 100 mph in the rain. He only had the car for one week.

3. 1959 Ferrari 250 GT TDF – $ 1.65 Million

This is classic car and most expensive car. Now we begin to get into classic cars are very rare. The owners are willing to take the machines on the street are just plain crazy. The people who carry them on the track are even crazier. This 1959 Ferrari 250 GT “Tour de France” crashed into the wall at the back of the Shell Ferrari-Maserati Historic Challenge in 2003.

2. Ferrari 250 GT Spyder – $ 10 Million

st when you thought could not get much more expensive, the damage has been multiplied. The record price for the 1961 250 GT California Spyder at auction set on May 18, 2008, when a black sells for $ 10,894,900. So what do bury in the sand? The owner was lucky to have it stored near the shore when the storm hit. Ferrari 250 GT was ranked second as the most expensive car accident.

1. Ferrari 250 GTO – $ 28.5 Million

This is most expensive car accident in the world. We now present with the most expensive car crash ever.

1st Bugatti Veyron Crash

Police identify owner of wrecked Bugatti

By Chris Paschenko

The Daily News

Published November 14, 2009

LA MARQUE — Police on Friday identified a Lufkin man who accidentally drove a $2 million Bugatti Veyron, a rare automobile that is perhaps the world’s fastest, into a saltwater lagoon.

Andy Lee House, 34, owner of Performance Auto Sales, told The Daily News on Wednesday that a low-flying pelican distracted him, causing him to jerk the steering wheel a bit — and he then dropped his cell phone.

The crash, however, was captured by someone filming the car as it traveled on the northbound frontage road of Interstate 45 about 3 p.m. Wednesday.

The man filming was traveling north on I-45. No pelican was visible in the video, which shows the car veering from the road and splashing in the lagoon.

With the Veyron in more than 2 feet of saltwater, House declined to give his name at the scene near Omega Bay.

Driver Offers Thanks

House posted a comment to The Lufkin Daily News, thanking everyone who was worried about him and the car.

“I have taken my exotic cars to school events, rallies, and allow anyone to take pictures of my cars and even rides in them,” House wrote. “I have allowed many people into my home to see my cars that I don’t even know. ... Say what you want about me, but there is a man in heaven right now looking over me and that’s all that matters!”

The 2006 Veyron is thought to have been one of only 200 made and one of only 15 in the United States. A 2006 model was for sale in Jonesboro, Ark., for $1.25 million. One of the prospective buyers was from Texas, The Associated Press reported in October.

Police Report Released

A police report, made public Friday, lists House as the driver and owner. The pelican caught his eye as it was quite close to colliding with the car, House said. House never said he was using the cell phone at the time. Dropping it added to the distraction just enough, sending the front passenger wheel off the road and into the soft, sloppy, muddy shoulder.

A Daily News reporter arrived at the scene about 15 minutes after the car entered the water just in time to see the gurgling exhaust stop bubbling like an outboard motor as the 1,001 horsepower engine died.

House, who was looking at real estate in Galveston the day of the crash, was not injured. The Veyron is capable of speeds of more than 253 mph, but House hadn’t risked driving it on a private fast track to test the limits, namely because the insurance company wouldn’t cover any resulting mishap, he said.

Insurance Company Takes Car

House called Gilbert Harrison, the tow truck driver who carefully winched the Veyron from the lagoon, telling him it was OK to release the car Friday to the insurance company. No information on the extent of the damage to the car’s electrical system, engine and components was available.

Harrison remembered House saying his phone rang frequently after the crash.

House seemed quite calm, Harrison said.

“What I told him was I’d be as gentle as possible,” Harrison said of the tow that cost less than $1,000. “I did this tow like I do every car — like it was my own.”

2nd Bugatti Veyron Crash

More details surrounding the Veyron crash have emerged, including the identity of the driver and its unfortunate owner. The Mail reports the vehicle was registered to 41-year old businessman Kumar Soni, but it’s believed the person behind the wheel at the time of the accident was his younger brother, 39-year old Ajay Soni. The crash occurred near the owner’s £3 million Surrey home in the UK, and neighbors claim it had caused a heated argument between the two brothers.

It’s also thought that the £830,000 supercar was only delivered last week and is one of only a dozen such models in the UK. Onlookers claim the car was travelling in excess of 100mph before the driver lost control, hit a Vauxhall Astra driven by a seven-month pregnant woman, and spun three times before crashing into trees beside the road.

Local police have taken details, and the driver is currently being investigated for driving without due care and attention. Fortunately, no-one was injured during the accident. The Soni family run several car hire and property companies based in London.

I saw a advertisement that Bugatti Veyron is available in India for 170 million Indian Rupees.

Any of those accidents didn't kill anyone, if it is I didn't post any unsuitable viewing shots. Okay.. Just posted some photos of worldwide known accidents that occurred.

I like to ask you question, Do you know how many minutes in local News lines In SL devoting to road accident in Island wide. Are you saying that shameful too.. I didn't market or show off any day to day accients. I have loads of that in my drive but it is ethic, thats why i didn't post them. You know SL police is also working some kind of project these days, They Stands huge cutouts of major deadly accidents with photos in roadside to get the fact to drivers when using road. If you like I can post them too. But it contains viewer discretion images.

I didn't understand much of what you typed, but if I get it right you scour the internet for accident pictures, store them on your hard drive, then look for pictures of deadly accidents showing mangled bodies, then you go on the news each day to watch the accidents on the news and then you stare at cutouts on the road of accidents? Good grief I am totally scared of you dude.

[Malaka2]

Ya you're right Watchman, Its bit weird, One of my friend works as a Insurance Claiming Agent. He Had a load of crashes in his Camera. I got that from him. So I have no right to post them in a forum.

You said you didn't understand what I typed. But in your post you describe everything that I said. But bro, don't be scared I'm not the Devil of the accident. Just a observer who explore how things happened.

[The Stig]

Why exactly should this not go under post whoring and be posted under a new thread ?

[Pericles]

I think we already extensively discussed this "caused by a Prius" accident in Japan.

[Malaka2]

This isn't a Top Ten Accident. But Look at the damage that done to the Car, but Driver got only scratch in his arm.. It isn't a miracle, it is the art of automobile safty... Ton of metal isn't worth if it can't save owner or driver, That is a marvelous machine.. What I want to say is if we can afford these kind of SAFE cars more lives that die on roads never happen... I know it isn't practical. But it is time to think about safety on roads than cheap vehicles...
