  | End of the road for a Lamborghini Murcielago.  End of the road for $400,000 Lamborghini Voted the world's most beautiful supercar, a rare Lamborghini Murcielago – worth more than $400,000 – suffered a tragic fate when it smashed into a power pole. The female driver was heading through the upmarket Auckland suburb of Parnell about 7.45am yesterday when the car crashed, police said. The silver-coloured luxury Italian sportscar – a 2002 version of Lamborghini's flagship model – was one of only about 10 in New Zealand. It was not known if the driver was speeding. She was taken to Auckland Hospital with moderate injuries. The car's previous owner, Mark Granger, sold it privately just 10 days earlier, but it would "not be going anywhere in a hurry now", he said. News of the crash also reached Auckland car dealership Independent Prestige. Lamborghini brand manager Greg Brinck said he was familiar with the car and surprised it had crashed. "Judging by where it occurred, it's almost like something untoward happened. . . . they certainly don't crash very often." The Murcielago is a 580-horsepower, 4WD vehicle with a V12 engine that can reach speeds of more than 330km/h. A used model can sell for $400,000 or more and brand new it could fetch about $500,000.

| Re: End of the road for a Lamborghini Murcielago. News of the crash also reached Auckland car dealership Independent Prestige. Lamborghini brand manager Greg Brinck said "he was familiar with the car and surprised it had crashed. " Add this to the list of dumb comments please. Whats knowing of the car have to do with it crashing, and whats the surprise that is crashed.... Unfortunate for the driver, maybe an insurance job?
