Big scare for Rick van Stippent last weekend: the millionaire was driving a €500,000 Lamborghini when he lost control due to a bump on the A28 near Rouveen.
The Dutchman and his passenger escaped unscathed, but the vehicle was completely damaged. The driver made a huge spin before finishing his race against the guardrail.
The owner of the vehicle is grateful to be still alive, he who had to bring the vehicle to a motor show to display it. “I have all-risk insurance, so everything will be fine,” he explains to our colleagues from AD.
Treated like a criminal
However, he regrets having been put in the spotlight in this way, and explains that he was treated like a criminal: “If I had driven a Polo, I would not have survived but it would not have made so much noise. . I was treated like a criminal! Rick doesn’t remember how fast he was going, but he said he was definitely over the limit.
This episode taught a good lesson to the millionaire, who does not think of buying a vehicle of this type. Currently, he runs the company “Stipt Polish Point”, which renovates vehicles in Vught.
