Car Attack

Continuing my occasional series.

Hampshire, 10 December 2012: A speeding driver smashed his £100,000 supercar into a fence and destroyed a garden while racing back to a pub. Property developer James O’Brien careered across the lawn in his 196mph Audi R8, where children had been playing hours earlier.*

The car... demolished the fence, a hedge, a shed and a bench and scattered kids’ toys, a court heard. Shocked Andrew and Paula Rigby were woken by the 1am crash and found the empty car on their drive.


* Yeah, like about eight hours earlier.

Poor reporting. Where's the value of the house to which this garden is attached?

VFTS, not even the Mail mentions it in their write up, but family home in Hants, large garden? Must be about £300,000 to £400,000?
