The celebrity car customiser said Hudson was wise in choosing to hit the ditch than a lamp post.

"He wasn't hurt and no other cars were involved. He was the only one in the car and had to climb across the seats to get out. He lives nearby so he just walked home."

Charalambous noted he called his recovery team, shut a section of the road and pulled the supercar out.

Charalambous noted he called his recovery team, shut a section of the road and pulled the supercar out.

"There is not that much damage but it's a Lamborghini Performante and it is the only one with that colour. He had it specifically painted with the colour SE30 viola," he said.

The car was facing the wrong way and was on the wrong side of the road in the ditch indicating it must have spun off the road during the night.
