Well thought out, it’s any driver’s nightmare: getting stuck in too narrow an alley. But when your car is worth hundreds of thousands of euros, it hurts more …
The absurd accidents with sports cars they are quite frequent. In many cases their owners are people with a lot of money, not used to driving. Or that they only take the sports car out of the garage on rare occasions.
One of the most embarrassing situations is get stuck in an alley. Embarrassing because it is one of those accidents where the driver is the only one at fault, and everyone points it out.
In this video that our colleague Ivan Fombella from Auto Bild, we can see how a brand new Ferrarri Rome get stuck in an old alley from an undisclosed Italian city, as the video has comments turned off (we can imagine why):
The best thing about the video is the old lady who comes running from the bottom of the alley, to reproach the owner of the car for the mindless action.
The unfortunate driver can always make the excuse that the browser or Google Maps took him there.
But the reality is that when you have a narrow alley in front of you and you realize that the car enters just right, the only responsibility to keep pressing the accelerator until the car is locked, is yours …
The Ferrari Roma is the cheapest Ferrari you can buy. Costs 220,000 euros With the basic equipment, but as soon as you add it, it rises to 250,000 euros.
It is a 4.66 meter long coupe equipped with a 620 hp V8 engine. It is capable of accelerating from 0-100 km / h in 3.4 seconds and reaching 320 km / h top speed. It is also, the only 4-seater Ferrari.
Measures 1,974mm wide, a fact that, as shown, the driver did not know … Or could not calculate well.
Getting stuck in an alley is a bummer, but luckily it is an accident not too expensive. At most that Ferrari Roma came out of there with a few scratches on the sides and wheels.
Being a Ferrari, the repair may cost a few thousand euros, but it shouldn’t be a problem for someone who owns a sports car.
