That’s Gotta Hurt: Tree Falls on New Aston Martin Rapide Sedan and Bentley Continental Supersports

July 28th, 2010 by admin | Posted in Uncategorized |

Here’s a sight that no driver would like to see his car in, even more so if the vehicles in question are a spanking-new $200,000+ Aston Martin Rapide sports saloon and a Bentley Continental Supersports.

According to Joel Feder (the man who took these photos), the incident happened at the Midwestern Automotive Media Association earlier this week when a thunderstorm followed by hail and strong winds took down a tree that landed right on the parked Aston Martin and Bentley.

And while the Continental didn’t sustain any damages, the Rapide’s encounter with the tree wasn’t so fortunate. As you can see in the gallery below, the Aston Martin suffered a smashed windshield, a broken mirror, scratches and a dent on the hood.
