<\/p>\nAn unlucky Brummie Instagram star doesn\u2019t have much luck with his cars.<\/p>\n
The young entrepreneur has had Porsche wrecked by vandals after it got a makeover and just months after his Lamborghini went up in flames.<\/p>\n
Self-made businessman Lak Sira, 22, saw his \u00a3125,000 Lamborghini Gallardo burst into flames earlier this year on a motorway just after he picked it up.<\/p>\n
Lak managed to escape from the car with his girlfriend seconds before blaze on Friday, February 22 after he spent \u00a312,000 on having his pride and joy gold-plate and \u00a310,000 on a service at Lamborghini Birmingham.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now, Lak claims vandals sprayed ‘w*****’ and ‘s***’ on the side of his \u00a380,000 Porsche when it was parked overnight in London’s exclusive Knightsbridge.<\/p>\n
Lak, who has 179,000 followers, said at the time of the fire: \u201cIf I didn\u2019t get out the car a few moments later it could have been a different story,\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI had only just picked up the car a few hours from the dealership after spending more than \u00a310,000 on servicing it.”<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cBut I noticed straight away that there was something wrong\u00a0as I could smell petrol in the cabin.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut as we were travelling down to London the smell became unbearable and we had to open the windows and get out on the hard shoulder.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowever, the next thing we heard was a loud bang and the car caught on fire.”<\/p>\n
The car was left devastated by the serious fire.<\/p>\n
“I just had to watch helplessly as the car which I had worked so hard to buy went up in smoke.<\/p>\n
“It was very frightening and my girlfriend is scared to get in any car with me now.”<\/p>\n
A West Midlands Fire Service spokesman confirmed it sent two crews, carrying ten firefighters, to the scene to fight the flames.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cWe were called at 8.54pm to the southbound carriageway of the M6, between junctions 6 and 5, following reports of a Lamborghini on fire.<\/p>\n
\u201cUpon arrival, crews found the car fully alight and used a hose-reel jet to douse the flames.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
