Car:
2002 Ferrari 550 Maranello

Location:

Car:
1994 Ferrari 348GTB

Description:
The owner wanted to install a rubber plug in a hole on the underside of his 1994 Ferrari 348GTB. Since he had a lift in his garage, he thought he'd take care of it right there. However his judgement was somewhat impaired, because he was taking powerful medications for a major back surgery operation the very next day.

When he started to lower the car, the lock on the lift arm on the right side failed to disengage. So the left arm went down, while the right arm stayed up. By the time he really figured out what was happening, the car rolled down onto the left side. A kindly neighbor happened to have a backhoe and chains, and he came over and several guys working together managed to get the car back on the ground reasonably intact.

The damage to the left side was actually fairly minor, considering the car did roll onto the side.

Location:
California

Funny/tragic story behing the Murcielago as a lot of you will know i'm sure.

He was clocked at 195mph in england, had the car impounded, had another super car of his flown out, wrote that off, got the lambo out of the impound to drive the rest of the rally, then wrote THAT off.

Not a good few days :/
