VIDEO: IF You Want To See What It's Like To BURN $2 Million Dollars, You've Come To The RIGHT Place!

I think most people would agree that it's never good when an automobile catches fire. Not only are the passengers lives in significant jeopardy, who wants to lose a vehicle in a flurry of flames?

Now, what is if it was a supercar worth about $2-2.5 million bucks? That just makes it all the more brutal.

For one unfortunate soul in the U.K., that very thing happened. That's because their McLaren P1 caught fire and, poof, no more. 

At the time of this writing there hasn't been any word from, well, anyone regarding this specific vehicle. From the very, very brief clip you see a trail of fluid that's approximately 30 feet long and then there's the bold blue P1 sitting the middle of the road. On fire. With the driver's side door fully open. 

We're hoping that the passenger(s) got out A OK and that no one was harmed in this instance. 

 

Another "quality" #McLaren product. Hope the driver was ok. #p1 #deathtrap

Why would anyone drive up on a burning car. Granted, they don't explode like on TV, but still. "Cottage" exotics have been known to go up in flames. Zenvo anyone?

Why would anyone who buys a supercar after seeing or being made aware of all the incidents of these sorts of cars burning to the ground not buy or check the option box for an in-car fire extinguisher? A very small price to pay (maybe more if wrapped in leather as some are) to protect your car. Especially if it is a limited run and you can't just run out and get another to replace it.

My TVRs have fire extinguishers.

@MD Smart man. There is no way in a gillion years I would let my P1 / La Ferrari / Viper T/A burn to the ground. Fire retardant can wash off.
