We are not amused! A tight-lipped Hugh Grant looks unimpressed as new Ferrari breaks down

By NATALIE WAIN

Down in the dumps: You can't blame Hugh Grant for being a bit peeved. After forking out around £120,000 for a new Ferrari California, you'd think you could rely on it not to break down


If Hugh Grant was dreaming of driving off into the sunset with his now-single ex, Liz Hurley, then he may wish to reconsider his mode of transportation.

The beleaguered actor did not look at all amused today as his brand new Ferrari California ran into a spot of bother en route to play a round of golf in Kent.

The £120,000 super-car came to a standstill approaching a roundabout near the town of Sandwich.


Dream car: Although Hugh Grant's afternoon turned into a nightmare after his brand new Ferrari California broke down en route to play a round of golf


Grant was forced to mount the curb and steer the vehicle onto the grass verge so as not to block the busy road.

The golf enthusiast was on his to way play golf at the Royal St George's Club, which is well known as the venue for the Open Championship.

Keen not to be parted from his precious cargo, the actor retrieved his golfing equipment from the car and waited with them on the verge before his friend Paul McMullan arrived to assist him.


Precious cargo: Looks like Grant has his priorities sorted though as he retrieved his golf clubs from the stranded vehicle. Although quite where he found room for them in the compact sports car is anyone's guess


The glum star of Four Weddings and a Funeral and Love Actually can probably afford the repair bill, although maybe he'll cheer up a little when he remembers that his new purchase has a full two-year warranty.

Maybe the bachelor will be driving off into the sunset after all. But any woman who comes between Hugh Grant and a round of golf should probably beware!


Smile! You'd think Hugh Grant would be grateful after his friend, Paul McMullan rescued him after his car ran into a spot of bother earlier today. But Grant looks less than impressed...maybe he's contemplating the pricey repair bill
