A young man has died after a luxury car he was driving crashed out of the road before rolling over. The fatal crash happened in the village of Gaydon, Warwickshire, in the early hours of Saturday morning. The alarm was raised at about 2.15am after reports of a Porsche Macan which had crashed on Banbury Road, while no other cars were involved.
Its driver, a boy in his late teens, had been travelling ‘at speed’ before losing control of the car with devastating consequences. He died at the scene after suffering catastrophic injuries, while the passenger in the Porsche did not have ‘any significant injuries,’ according to the police.
