Well, this is terrible. A Ferrari Enzo crashed late last month on the UK Island of Jersey. It collided with the Honda Jazz, known as the Fit in the US and other markets, and caused major damage to the supercar.
It is not clear how the accident happened as police are still seeking witness information about the collision a week after it happened. According to Jersey Night Post, a witness described seeing the Ferrari hit the median before coming to a stop. It’s unclear how it collided with the Honda, but the Ferrari had no front-end damage.
However, the rear quarter panel of the Ferrari driver’s side is quite banged up. The car was missing body panels in front of the rear wheels. It looks like the rear tire on the other side of the car hit the pavement – it bends sideways into the wheel nicely. It must have been a big accident because the airbags of both cars were open.
The Honda Jazz is shown with the hood up after sustaining damage to one side of the front bumper. It’s hard to tell, but it also looks like it received a bent wheel, as both cars had to be towed from the crash. Fortunately, no one in either vehicle was seriously injured, but an elderly driver was taken to hospital as a precaution.
According to Jersey Night Post, a delivery driver was in the Ferrari driver’s seat at the time of the accident. The vehicle was registered with someone on the island of Guernsey. The collision closed the road for several hours before opening Thursday afternoon.
The Ferrari Enzo is a rare supercar, with the Italian automaker only making 400 units between 2002 and 2004. It is powered by a V12 that produces 651 horsepower (478 kilowatts). That’s a lot of force under one’s right foot and can easily get out of hand. Repairing something this rare and old wouldn’t be cheap. It costs $659,000 new, but its value has surpassed the seven-figure mark in recent years.
