Footage has been captured of the decimated remains of the Pagani Zonda GJ, revealing the shocking extent of destruction to the car.
The short 16-second clip shows the car up against the metal railings and covered in tree branches in the aftermath of the collision, with substantial damage to the bodywork.
Jack Sullivan, who captured the video, posted online, "Gentleman was taking a Pagani Zonda GJ for drive through NW London and then this happened ... guy driving tried to floor it and lost the back end."
The car had been seen earlier in the day with traded number plates on it and it is believed that the owner of the car was not driving it at the time of the accident. It is thought that the owner of the Zonda is a businessman from the Far East.
The accident happened earlier this month when a motorist lost control of the 200mph motor as he was driving around an industrial estate in north west London.
A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police told The Evening Standard that no one had been hurt in the crash.
