In what may be the most expensive pile-up ever, 14 luxury cars smashed into each other in Japan yesterday, reportedly while they were being driven from Hiroshima to a supercar event in Kyushu.

Thankfully, no one was seriously hurt in the accident, which involved eight Ferraris, two Mercedes and at least one Lamborghini, each worth hundreds of thousands of pounds. The road was closed for more than six hours while rescue workers cleared the wreckage.
