Scots biker mangled 'most beautiful car ever made' in horror crash
21.03.2022 - 20:21 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A businessman who smashed up "the most beautiful car ever made" in a head-on crash has been found guilty of careless driving.
Company owner Bhupinder Lalli veered across the wrong side of the road on his Harley Davidson and straight into a lawyer's £150,000 Jaguar E-Type.
Lalli, who owns a chain of dry cleaning stores, caused nearly £50,000 worth of damage to the rare classic car and injured passenger Helen Whyte.
Perth Sheriff Court heard Lalli was driving the huge motorbike - weighing nearly half a ton - when he smashed into the lovingly restored 55-year-old car.
The court heard he caused so much damage to the car - described by design legend Enzo Ferrari as "the most beautiful car ever made" - that it took nine months to rebuild.
The damage to the vehicle was so bad that an expert restorer compared it to what would happen if it had been involved in a high speed crash during a race.
Lalli had been accused of dangerous driving, and speeding repeatedly and driving on the wrong side of the road, but was found guilty of careless driving.
Sheriff Richard MacFarlane said: "The person who looks after it had never seen such damage to an E-Type away from events on a racetrack."
Lalli told the court he had drifted across the road after suffering a flashback to a fatal accident during a bike trip he organised in Slovakia a year beforehand.
It also heard that Lalli - despite being thrown from the bike and injured - was able to sit up and apologise to the owner for mangling his "lovely" car.
Solicitor Nicholas Whyte told the trial that he and wife Helen had gone out for a drive in his beloved Jaguar when the accident happened.
Mr Whyte, 71, senior partner in Forfar-based MacHardy, Alexander & Whyte, said he had to swerve to avoid one
