On the exit of the A27 in Oosterhout, a driver lost control of his Bentley on Wednesday afternoon. The car crashed into a tree and caught fire. The driver was able to escape in time.
He was then checked by paramedics, but he is not seriously injured.
And apart from the enormous fear for the driver himself, it is also a bit of a shock for car enthusiasts. The car is a 2019 Bentley Mulsanne Speed, with a new price of 520,000 euros. They are no longer made and in the Netherlands only a handful of people have such a car. Each copy could also be finished as desired.
Strong, fast and heavy
The top speed of the car is 305 kilometers per hour, with 537 horsepower. And that the tree is still there can also be called a miracle, because this car weighs no less than 2660 kilos.
