    7 Of The Most Expensive Car Crashes Ever

    Here at Sell The Car USA we see a variety of damaged and wrecked cars every single day – but perhaps none that are worth quite this amount of money. We’re betting the owners of these cars wish they had taken a little bit more care, or perhaps not even bothered getting them out of garage at all!

    Mercedes Benz 300 SL Gullwing – $1 MILLION

    The Gullwing is considered by many to be THE classic car. The owner of this stunning vehicle was taking place in the annual “La Carrera Panamericana” – a street race through towns and cities in Mexico and unfortunately the car came off second best after colliding with a few static objects.

    Jaguar XJ220 – $1 MILLION

    This crash which took place in the early 90s is considered one of the most expensive on record. There were only around 300 ever sold which means the value has soared in recent years. The owner lost control while leaving his local golf club and ended up destroying the entire front end.

    McLaren F1 – $1.25 MILLION

    With such a huge price tag you would expect the owners to take a bit of care with the McLaren F1. Not Rowan Atkinson though who somehow managed to wreck 2 of these glorious vehicles in a matter of years, although with a top speed of 231 mph we can understand how that would be possible.

    Ferrari Enzo – $1.3 MILLION

    Notorious criminal Stefan Eriksson spectacularly crashed a Ferrari Enzo in 2006 after reaching reported speeds of 196 mph! The vehicle came off second best to a pole and seemed to split this car almost straight in half.

    Bugatti Veyron – $1.6 MILLION

    With only 300 of these expected to ever be made it could be a difficult car to replace. The driver was reported to have been doing in excess of 100 mph, which combined with the wet and windy conditions meant that this car’s best days are now long behind it.

    Ferrari 250 GT Spyder – $10 MILLION

    Taking your Ferrari 250 GT Spyder down to the beach might seem like everyones idea of a great day out, just make sure that it’s not hurricane season and you remember to take it with you when you leave, otherwise this happens.

    Ferrari 250 GTO – $28.5 MILLION

    When a car is worth this much money you wonder how much courage it takes to drive it on the roads. We guarantee the owner of this car is now regretting that decision – why couldn’t they just leave it in the garage like everyone else would!

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
