In perhaps one of the most expensive minor collisions in the history of the automotive world, the rear of a Mercedes-Benz S-Class was bumped by a Bentley Azure with a trio of women in it. What’s more, the wayward vehicle also hit a nearby Ferrari F430, Porsche 911, and Aston Martin Rapide. This collision of high-end metal and top-class finishing, which occurred in Monte Carlo, is estimated to reach six figures in terms of damage.
The S-Class actually got off easy compared to the poor F430. The Bentley, perhaps after grazing the Mercedes vehicle’s back side, swerved into the Rapide and went straight to the nose of the F430 before it hit the 911.
Authorities were quick to the scene, as it happened right in front of a premiere casino, the Place du Casino, that was brimming with people because of the summer season. Soon, people were outside snapping pictures using their smartphones, as they peered onto a scene that could easily have been an exhibition hall in an auto show—excepet that these high-end vehicles engaged in a little twisted metal action.
Only in Monte Carlo.
