Over 1 million Euros worth of luxury cars smashed to pieces
(Web Desk) - Over €1 million worth of luxury cars smashed to pieces in Philippines by customs control.
A McLaren, Bentley and Porsche crushed by a backhoe… it’s enough to make any car enthusiast wince. These are just a few of the luxury cars – totalling over €1 million – that were destroyed by the Philippines Bureau of Customs (BOC) on June 18 in a grand show of force against car smugglers.
In a post on their Facebook page on June 18, the Philippines Bureau of Customs posted a series of photos showing seven cars being crushed by construction equipment on a lot in Manila. The cars destroyed included luxury models such as a brand new McLaren 620R, a used Bentley 2007, and a used Porsche 911. A Hyundai Genesis and Toyota Solara were also demolished.
According to the BOC, the demolition serves to “send the strong message that the government is serious in its efforts against smuggling”.
