[B]A Lamborghini burst into flames today, causing traffic chaos on the M25, Britain's busiest motorway.

why the fuck do these burst into flames all the time also is the whole car made of plastic it's fucking disintegrated.
[IMG]http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-smith.gif[/IMG] why
$5 says Jeremy Clarkson is responsible.
SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A TESLA!!!!
Keeps happening to Lamborghinis in particular. Guess they're not very good cars.
I'd be pretty pissed if i was the guy who owned this, you would've thought a car that expensive wouldn't just randomly burst into flames
Anyone noticed how the third picture is copyrighted by Ferrari?
[QUOTE=codenamecueball;41905810]why the fuck do these burst into flames all the time also is the whole car made of plastic it's fucking disintegrated.[/QUOTE] Usually it's electrical stuff that shits the bed and burn the car down. Otherwise it can be something as crazy as the fuel tank rubbing up against its heat shield, causing a hole to form and the friction to ignite the fuel, which is exactly what happened to some certain models and years for the Audi R8. Regardless, it's depressing to see and it's the equivalent of human spontaneous combustion, just flat out ridiculous.
I'm pretty sure Jeremy Clarkson actually took a shit on Lamborghini on Top Gear for them bursting into fire constantly.
Lambos are shitmobiles for rich people who don't know any better
If you look closely at the smoke you can see it's made out of "$" figures.

[QUOTE=Faz;41906336]Lambos are shitmobiles for rich people who don't know any better[/QUOTE] I've driven one on an experience day, I wouldn't mind owning one
[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;41906456]pure jealousy[/QUOTE] Obviously, shit I'd do anything for one of those. But it's commonly owned by rich kids who just want the brand name, while compared to other luxury cars around the same price, like a rolls royce it's pretty bad and unsafe as hell

They are pretty much just rolling decorations.

does Mann co own Lamborghini?
The M25 is probably the worst place to drive a Lamborghini in the first place. Nothing like driving at 25 mph in heavy traffic looking at airports or industrial estates in a souped up Italian sports car.
[QUOTE=Ishwoo;41905861]I'd be pretty pissed if i was the guy who owned this, you would've thought a car that expensive wouldn't just randomly burst into flames[/QUOTE] Anyone with enough disposable income to buy, maintain and insure a Lamborghini has enough to replace it, unless they inherited all their money and have the same skill with it as a twelve year old boy. Also I love how the last image is licensed to Ferrari, it's like they took it just to put it on their website
[QUOTE=Ishwoo;41905861]I'd be pretty pissed if i was the guy who owned this, you would've thought a car that expensive wouldn't just randomly burst into flames[/QUOTE] I bet his insurance company are even more pissed
I thought flames made the car go faster :v:
[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;41906456]pure jealousy[/QUOTE] I think what he's trying to say is that if he had the money for one he'd buy something else. So would I. I'd buy a Jaguar F-Type or a TVR Sagaris. Not a Lambo.
Everyone has different tastes in cars. I'd buy a Lambo too, I fucking love them.
Is it just me, or is "spontaneously bursts into flames" something that sounds like it should've been noticed during safety testing
[QUOTE=nikomo;41906089]I'm pretty sure Jeremy Clarkson actually took a shit on Lamborghini on Top Gear for them bursting into fire constantly.[/QUOTE] that was ferrai 458s, because the rear wheels heated up so much they melted the plastic glue holding the insulation in place and burnt the car down
