That leaves only two FF's in the country now - a white one in Delhi and a blue one in Bangalore (ex-Pune).

The only other FF, a Rosso Berlinetta from Goa, has left the country AFAIK.

A quick search on YouTube pulled up this video, but the Mulsanne is not to be seen, so it must be a different video clip than the one circulating on WhatsApp.

The owner rushed to the scene in his Mulsanne, driving quite spiritedly and that's what made it billow smoke from the brakes which people mistook for another fire.

Here are a few screenshots from a couple of videos I received on whatsapp groups.

The interior is burnt beyond saving too! Can't see it here but you can in the video. Truly disheartening!

Anyone got any info on what really happened?

Thanks //M for the figures. Yes and i think this was the most driven or rather most spotted one. Not sure about the FF from Goa.

Re: Supercar & Import Crashes in India

I saw a yellow supercar crashed in Hyderabad near Durgam Cheruvu yesterday. I was driving so I don't have any pics. The car was also covered with a cloth so I couldn't make out what it was exactly. Might have been a Porsche. The front bumper had come off and there was damage on the driver side door too.

Does anyone have more info about it?

That would be a yellow CaymanS.
Don't have any details about what exactly happened but early whispers suggest overspeeding and driver error. And the driver was not even the owner is what I hear. May have been a service guy. But then again, these are just rumors and should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Re: Supercar & Import Crashes in India

Heard there was some crash involving the DC Avanti @ Delhi.
Apparently one of the wheels came off during the drive and the driver lost control.

Not a supercar even if it's in fancy dress like one so I won't post it on the supercar thread

Bentley, Driven By Tycoon Ponty Chadha's Nephew, Hits Auto

Just read this on NDTV.

A woman was killed and three others were critically injured in a traffic accident in central Delhi today after a speeding luxury sedan hit an auto-rickshaw.
The expensive Bentley car, being driven by the late industrialist Ponty Chadha's nephew according to the police, was left in tatters after the accident.

Unfortunately news reporters are not bhpians. So you always have to take their description of vehicles with a pinch or two of salt. Except the auto journos, of course. But those chaps don't do general news reporting and stick to only automobiles.

Re: Supercar & Import Crashes in India

An auto show at a college in Kollam didn’t go well today. Apparently, someone thought they could stage a show and ended up ploughing into people. From the windscreen, it seems like it belonged to a doctor and he tried to get away

People say that he was intoxocated, to which I seriously doubt. One in their good wits wouldn’t do that before doing one such, amidst that crowd. There wasn’t any serious casualties though.

AWD and that teeny bit of earth was calling for that

Looks like this was the inspiration. But terribly went wrong. As per news 2 major causalities.

This 19 year old and the earlier mentioned Industrialists nephew is the same person? the one who was driving and got killed?
