Update: More details surrounding the Veyron crash have emerged, including the identity of the driver and its unfortunate owner. The Mail reports the vehicle was registered to 41-year old businessman Kumar Soni, but it’s believed the person behind the wheel at the time of the accident was his younger brother, 39-year old Ajay Soni. The crash occurred near the owner’s £3 million Surrey home in the UK, and neighbors claim it had caused a heated argument between the two brothers.

It’s also thought that the £830,000 supercar was only delivered last week and is one of only a dozen such models in the UK. Onlookers claim the car was travelling in excess of 100mph before the driver lost control, hit a Vauxhall Astra driven by a seven-month pregnant woman, and spun three times before crashing into trees beside the road.

Local police have taken details, and the driver is currently being investigated for driving without due care and attention. Fortunately, no-one was injured during the accident. The Soni family run several car hire and property companies based in London.

Previous: We’ve seen plenty of smashed Ferrari Enzos but this is the first time we’ve across images of a wrecked Bugatti Veyron. Information is sketchy, but it’s thought that a pool of water on the road caused the AWD supercar to lose traction and then spin out of control, sending it head first into a ditch near Shepperton in the UK. Most of the cabin section and engine compartment look relatively undamaged, however, it’s hard to determine what internal damage to the drivetrain there is if any. Hopefully the driver got out unscathed.

According to the source, this is the first time a private customer has actually crashed a Veyron. Engineers reportedly destroyed two prototype examples during testing, which was part of the reason for the long delays during the vehicle’s development.

    Some old fart might have the money, but not the sklls obviously.

    WTF!

    These Veyrons are sold at a huge loss, they are unique in many ways... a tribute to our top end technologies... they will never be reproduced.

    Whoever crashed this car deserves a bullet.

    He used the key to turn the spoiler off and lower it to the ground so yeah he was definetly trying to speed and water would throw off his traction since he did not have a lot of downforce. So he probably hydroplaned till he crashed.

    To hydroplane until he crashed, he would have to have been carrying a lot of speed down what, from the image looks like a 'b' road. Therefore the driver, like so many of this ilk, was clearly driving carelessly in the conditions.

    Besides, the veyron is a misengineered and badly designed car anyway. Then again that's what you get when you get a team of marketing types to design the looks first, and then shoehorn the engine and mechanics in afterwards which is actually the only interesting thing about this car.

    The key doesnt turn off the spoiler... it turns on the speed supporting equipment, ie, the better suspension tuning, the spoiler adjusts out farther the faster you go for added downforce and upon hard braking it deploys out enough to act as a wind brake of sorts to slow the car down faster....

    "turning the key on" would only have caused that accident if it was attributed to going above the top speed of the non super sport or whatever they call it mode.

    Wow thats a serious shame in my books,

    Karl - everything you mentioned if true except that the second key down by the door seal does infact lock the spoiler down for high speed "slipperyness" the car creates enough downforce with its aero that having the spoiler up just becomes a restriction..

    i heard they lost a test driver in a prototype, and when they couldnt get the aero to work they, had to redesign the whole front end..

    even though its heavy and techy, and probably the biggest bitch of a car in the world to work on, to say its not a masterpeice is incredulous, please explain why you say this...

    ste - yep, every marvel of the 21st century in the Veyron... except light weight materials. It's nearly 5 times heavier than the DP1, and that will be quicker in the vast majority of situations, both on road and on track. Also cheaper and more fun, plus if a rich toff were to buy one he'd sh*t himself driving it. Me wants...

    Now for the car, what a machine just pure animal, my mazda is faster in a straight line (up to 300 anyway) but its no veyron. As said b4 its good to see it gets/got driven not just left to rot. If you can afford to buy one you can afford to fix it.

    Ciaran, shouldnt you be doing your homework or something....farken kids and they're dribble.

    Cool. If I had one, I would probably crash it, but what the hell, at least I would be trying to 'use' it.
    Cars (and bikes) should be driven to their potential - and if they are specifically designed for performance, hey, explore the boundaries! As one very great driver once said "you never really know where the limit is until you go past it." Here, here, say I.
    If you hit standing water in anything you are liable to aquaplane, with tyres the width of this little baby this will just magnify the problem. But hey, shit happens and if you can afford to drive it you can probably afford to bend it.
    Straighten it out and get it back out!

    yes it may be fixable and yes it will be costly, but where exactly do you take it to be fixed? these cars are made from scratch by hand. repairs... well they don't even have any tools to repair it so they will have to determine the problem and then machine tools to work on the car. it would ahve been nice to have deployable parachutes to stop him before he hit the chutes. what were the manufaturers thinking?

    What the hell are you idiots on about? The first car to break 253mph is misengineered? Well get cracking on something better then smart guy. Sounds like an awful lot of jealous people on here, commenting on how funny it is that a rich guy crashed an expensive car.

    Obviously, all of you pro race drivers would have clearly not crashed in that situation, because you're all so damned smug and brilliant.

    Karl, you are incorrect about the key in the sill. Turning it doesn't make the rear spoiler come out, it makes it go IN. The suspension lowers and the wing stays in for improved drag co-effiecency, this setting is supposedly for top speed runs.

    twidget, the car is made of carbon fibre. What exactly do you mean when you say "except light weight materials"? Do you even know why the car is so heavy?

    Several news reports mention the driver of the other car was seven months pregnant. Hope mother and baby are ok. I would like to express my unrelenting anger towards the idiot who should have taken it on a trackday rather than give yet more ammunition to the anti-car lobbyists. Whether the Bugatti can be fixed or not is now irrelevant. From here on in every time a Bugatti comes up in conversation this crash will get presented as evidence why high performance cars should be banned from the road.

    Ciaran -
    Do some homework before you start spouting off about the engineering. This car was built around the powerplant not marketing. I trust the design studio had their say but the Veyron was brought about by some massive engine research. I'm sure this car could get the best of the most trained driver! With out doubt this car was driven with great neglegence and sadly their was an innocent pregnant woman involved. The Veyron is a closed circuit or track car plain and simple!!!

    I can't believe you guys are all worried for the driver and giving him props for "giving it some". He did this on a public road and ran into a pregnant women. It's losers like this guy who should never be allowed to live, let alone drive again.

    Everyone mentions the car and the driver of the veyron (he's got guts, he's an idiot, what a waste of a car); but no one seems concerned for the person that he hit. I woud be mad as hell if some billionare's car wrecked my car and put my life at risk. What if he was not wearing his seatbelt, his body could have killed the other driver. Wouldn't that suck big time.

    I want names, I want addresses, I want phone numbers. This person will be tortured beyond belief, killed with arsenic, cut up and sent off to to Bugatti so they can see the mauled face of the disgrace who crashed this beautiful, exquisite car.

    MESSAGE TO THE DRIVER OF THIS VEYRON: I AM COMING TO GET YOU. YOU WILL DIE FOR THIS CRIME. IF YOU RUN I WILL CATCH YOU. HIDE AND I WILL FIND. PREPARE TO DIE BITCH.

    Wow, what a range of different opinions about this car and its driver!

    Well, I'm just glad I now own a piece of this historical event. Yep, you may love it or hate it..., but I now own a fairly decent piece of this Bugatti, the first wrecked £830k + production car in history. (Feeling Smug.)

    It's part of the carbon-fible undertray and it even has a label with production codes and 'Bugatti' printed on it.

    (Do you think I should frame it everyone?... or just phone the driver who wrecked it and ask him if he wants to super-glue it back on in a desperate bid to appease his raging brother from whom he 'borrowed' the car!)

    So, some pompous, up his own ass, rich guy from snotty surrey stuffed his veyron...boo hoo...never mind eh'. Still it reminds me of the time I booted a VX220 Turbo off a set of traffic lights on an icy road and ended up round a lamppost. They tried to fix it but it never drove the same...and a VX is a hell of a lot simpler and less sophisticated than a Veyron. Sad to say I reckon that particular Veyron will never be the same and I pity the poor mug who buys it thinking he's got a (relative!) bargain, cos if this Prick crashed a mint one, can u imagine someone crashing one with a bent chassis...RIP matey.

    to those of you who think the car is ugly: the car is built for purpose not for looks, do your homework. It's too bad the idiot wrecked it, much like the dolts who smashed up their Enzos. 253 is the top speed the comptuer in it allows it, definately good for speed but the F1 car that only reached 240 was a bt more everyday user friendly. However I applaud Bugatti for using the best and highest technology to make a very advanced state of the art car. Yeah it's expensive but when it's this good it's worth it. Though I don't see cars that get anything less than 20mpg at the most staying around for more than another 10-20 years due to gas drying up. Not to mention they can make electrics and hydrogen cars that could smoke this version of the Veyron.
