Property tycoon Jon Hunt is suing a West London auto shop after his $1,4 million Lamborghini Miura SV burst into flames with his son inside. Fortunately, the young lad was able to get out of the car unharmed. The incident occurred last year with bystanders filming the blaze.
Jon Hunt, a UK billionaire who founded Foxtons estate agents, is taking legal action against H.R. Owen Dealerships, asking for £700,000, or about $1.1 million / €880,000, in compensation, including damages.
His son had taken delivery of the 1971 Mirua SV from the garage right after a service was completed. Less than a mile later, the rare Italian exotic exploded in flames and was completely destroyed....

A real tragedy whatever the reason to destroy one of these beautiful cars.
