An example of the world’s fastest production car, the Bugatti Veyron was involved in a road accident in Surrey on Sunday afternoon, March 4.

The unnamed driver is said to have lost control of the 1000bhp, 253mph supercar when it hit a patch of standing water on the B375 near Shepperton. The four-wheel drive Veyron then aquaplaned and crashed nose first into a ditch by the side of the road. It is not known whether any other vehicles were involved although Surrey Police have no record of the accident, suggesting the driver arranged himself for the car to be recovered. Doubtless the embarrassed owner is lying low and contemplating the sort of repair bill only a wrecked £800,000 supercar can create

Isn't Surrey smack in the middle of Formula 1 manufacturing country, i.e. McLaren?
