The smoking Italian sports car forced traffic police to close three lanes in the anti-clockwise side of the London orbital, causing hours of delays on the M25, Britain’s busiest highway. The flaming wreck of the Lamborghini Gallardo could be seen between junctions J25 and J24 in Hertfordshire following the blaze.
The driver of the car walked away unharmed. It is believed to be a mechanical problem that started the fire.
