Today The Car Spotter brings you a follow up blog article about the Lamborghini Huracan that was filmed after reaching speeds well over 200mph on the M7 public motorway in Hungary last September. The car has now been put up for sale on an online auction site with bids starting at £4,000.
To read my recent article about the crashed Lamborghini Huracan and watch the video of the 200mph crash click here.
For a review of the Lamborghini Huracan, please click here to look at my recent blog article about the one I saw in South Kensington at H.R. Owen Lamborghini.
The £186,000 Lamborghini Huracan was destroyed last year and video footage released by local authorities to show the dangers of speeding and dangerous driving. The vehicle clocked speeds of 336km/h (209mph) during the video before the driver loses control of the supercar, hits the crash barrier at the side of the road and flips off the other side into a ditch.

Throughout the event, the passenger was filming the speedometer and the video gives you a rough idea of how the crash happened.
Please watch the video released by Hungarian police below to see for yourselves.
The driver Csapo Joska escaped the accident unharmed however his friend spent eight days in hospital after the incident.

It has now emerged that Csapo Joska borrowed the Lamborghini Huracan from a friend. He is now selling the car once valued at £186,000 for just £4,000.
The advert on the auction site states, ‘Lamborghini Huracan, one previous owner, sold as seen.’

According to police, insurance companies have refused to pay for the damage due to the illegal high-speeds the Lamborghini was travelling at. Mr Joska has been charged with numerous offences. The £4,000 is an attempt to try and get back some of the money he is due to pay in compensation and fines, in addition to settling the debt with his friend who let him borrow the Lamborghini Huracan no doubt.
I can’t see the auction site getting many bids based on the condition and uselessness of the parts. It seems none of the parts are in working condition or will be salvageable so the only use for the item would be as quirky art or one-off furniture. Surely nobody would waste £4,000 on the twisted and burnt out remains? Because of the high publicity of the case however, the site may receive a lot of attention, so who knows, maybe it will receive some bids. Only time will tell.
What do you think of the remains of the Lamborghini Huracan? Would you pay £4,000+ for the remains of the Lamborghini Huracan?
