A businessman from Carmarthen was left fuming after a boy posted a photo of himself jumping on the bonnet of his £250,000 McLaren sports car.

Three hours after getting the three-month old car back from repairs in Birmingham the owner had taken it for a spin in Port Talbot, before stopping for some dinner.

Despite getting a seat near the window so he could keep an eye on his pride and joy he said the first he knew of the idiot on the bonnet was when he spotted pictures "Kane Reynolds" had posted on Facebook.

In them the boy is seen standing on top of the white 12C Spider, with the comment "Thought I had to take the **** seen this lush mclarun [sic] thought I'd jump on the bonet [sic] init **** it why not mwhahaha."

The owner, who did not want to be identified, told the Carmarthen Journal: "It was a little bit disappointing to say the least. I’ve only just had it back as well."

He added: "They delivered it at 4pm yesterday. I used it for a bit and went for dinner last night.

"It had been back to have a few things done under warranty.

"Funnily enough I was looking out of the window and I didn’t see it. I saw a crowd stood round taking pictures, but that is to be expected.

"I chose a seat so I could keep an eye on the car."

He said the damage had not been major, but he was waiting for it to be cleaned and polished so he could assess the full extent of it.

He said: "I’m waiting to identify the bloke so I can send him a nasty solicitor's letter."

He added: "It is still going to cost a lot of money – with these cars everything costs, unfortunately.

"I’ve been going to that restaurant for two to three years and I always park there and I’ve never really had any problems.

"Yes I parked on a double yellow, but it’s cheaper than the damage if you park in a car park.

"You shouldn’t expect to have that sort of thing."
