Many things can go wrong during a test, especially if it involves a highly powerful supercar like the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4, which is why automotive engineers select remote places like the Arctic Circle.
However, being that our spies travel to all four corners of the world with the goal of capturing a future model on film, there is always the slim possibility that they’ll be on hand when something goes wrong. It’s usually a one in a million shot, but stranger things have happened.
And that one in a million chance came when one of our scoop photographers was waiting for a Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 to pass by somewhere in the Arctic Circle and there, it happened; it crashed into the snow!
One of the photographer’s associates described the incident to Carscoop thusly:
“Originally, our photographer thought the car coming down the road was an Aventador Roadster prototype. As the car approached the intersection, at a speed that appeared faster than the posted speed limit, the driver lost control, skidded through the intersection and crashed into a large snow bank.
If that wasn’t enough, the driver then leaped out of the car, nearly falling down in the process, and came at our photographer in a fairly aggressive manner.
By the time an Audi A6 allroad, equipped with a winch, came to pull the raging bull out of the snow, things had calmed down. The driver scooped the snow out of the car, gave us a large smile and a big thumbs up, and got back to work! Not exactly the finger we were expecting to see.
Fortunately, the driver, and the car, came away from the mishap totally unharmed.”
