McLaren crashes factory-fresh MP4-12C

The rollout of the McLaren MP4-12C hasn't been trouble-free, but at least their owners have avoided immediately piling them into trees and other vehicles upon delivery. This photo shows, again, that McLaren might be able to handle that service for its customers all on its own.

Caught yesterday near McLaren's headquarters, the poster on the ClioSport forums says this MP4-12C hit his friend's car, then crashed into a fence. You car crash CSI wannabees will note the protective blue plastic on the hood, which means the car was likely being driven to a dealer when it went wobbly, and that the force of the crash was enough to set off the interior air bags.

McLaren really needs to let Lewis Hamilton have a day off.
