Italian parking: $450,000 Ferrari Wrecked by Valet

garage attendant in Italy accidentally rammed a $450,00 (£300,000) Ferrari into a shop front after mistaking the brake for the accelerator.

The attendant was supposed to be delivering the rare supercar, which can accelerate from a standing start to 60mph in three seconds, to its owners, a Dutch couple who had taken part in a meeting of Ferrari enthusiasts in Anzio, south of Rome.

The owners were staying just a few streets away from where the car was being stored.

I’m sure the owners were delighted by this and – it being Italy – the incident will be tied up in the Italian courts for years. They may even find the owner guilty of negligence!
