Video: Big blow as R50 million Bugatti burns after catching fire

A red and black Bugatti Chiron sports car worth about R50 million suffered huge damage from a fire while parked in a garage in Miami, US.

Supercar Fails published two videos on Instagram in which the burnt Chiron can be seen parked next to a black Ferrari that had not been affected by the fire.

A lot of money will need to be spent to fix the Chiron, as it will need a new bonnet, fender, wheel, tyre, driver’s side door and window.

These parts do not come cheap, plus the labour to fix the car will see the bill skyrocketing.

According to Carscoops, there is no official information on the incident but it was allegedly reported that someone purposely torched the Chiron.
