A young businessman was left gutted after his prized £125,000 Lamborghini Gallardo burst into the flames on the motorway - just an hour after picking it up from the garage. Lak Sira, 22, said he was nearly killed after his "pride and joy" went up in smoke as he drove along the M6 with his girlfriend last Friday (22/2). The entrepreneur had been on his way to London when he smelt petrol and was forced to pull over on the hard shoulder near Birmingham. He then jumped from the gold chrome-plated supercar after hearing a loud bang and watched helplessly as the back of luxury vehicle was engulfed in flames.
