A TikTok video showed shocking scenes after a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Roadster collided with a bus at Oxford Circus Underground Station during the early hours of Saturday morning.
The Lamborghini appeared to have suffered catastrophic damage to its front end.
The bus also suffered damage, losing a large chunk of its right side between the tyre arches.
The video showed the Italian supercar, famed for its phenomenal speed and acceleration, being towed away from the scene at Margaret Street’s junction with Regent Street.

The incident prompted some attempts at humour on social media.
One user posted, “You can’t park there” and “It’s only a scratch,” while others joked,”Someone has lost their No Claims Bonus!” and “You can’t stop in a yellow box junction!”
The Metropolitan Police confirmed they were called out to the junction of Margaret Street and Regent Street to reports of a collision between a car and a bus.
