A driver has crashed their new Ferrari after taking it out on the road for less than two miles.
Pictures shared of the red supercar, which is believed to be a Ferrari 488, show it with a mangled bonnet, scratches along the front end, and broken headlights.
Derbyshire Roads Policing Unit confirmed that nobody was injured in the crash.
The force tweeted: "Derby. 1st April. Driver bought a Ferrari this morning and crashed it after driving it less than 2 miles. No injuries."
It later confirmed that the tweet was not an April Fool's joke.
According to Parkers Car Price Guide, a used Ferrari 488 can cost more than £175,000.
Social media users reacted to the post, with one person simply writing: "Ouch."
Another called the driver a "bloody moron" while one user suggested the car is a "menace and evidently difficult to control".
