Just one hour after a man acquired a £260,000 jet black Ferrari 430 Scuderia, the car burnt down badly after it crashed off the side of a motorway and transformed into a fireball.

According to South Yorkshire Police, the Ferrari driver left the road in wet conditions and slid 50 metres across a field before the vehicle burst into flames near Barnsley, South Yorks. The driver survived the accident with cuts and bruises.

South Yorkshire Police Operational Support posted on Facebook while sharing photos of the wreckage;

‘Afternoon folks, were you stuck in traffic this afternoon on the M1 south around junction 37? If so, here’s why.

‘Officers were deployed to a single vehicle collision with reports that the vehicle had left the carriageway and burst in to flames.
‘Road conditions were wet at the time and as officers arrived on scene it became clear there was a vehicle well alight.
