A supercar burst into flames with a bang on the side of a busy highway just moments after the driver jumped out and watched helplessly as he filmed the flames engulf his 125,000 pound ($160,000) Lamborghini.

Twenty-two-year-old Lak Sira had picked up the Lamborghini Gallardo convertible from the dealership just hours earlier after a 10,000 pound ($13,000) service, before setting off with his girlfriend down the three-lane highway to London from his home in Birmingham, England, on Feb. 22.
