Ben Affleck’s son Samuel, 10, appears to back Lamborghini into BMW
Ben Affleck‘s 10-year-old son Samuel reversed a $225,000 Lamborghini into a parked BMW at a Los Angeles luxury car dealership after his father let him take the wheel during a test drive.
The actor, 49, allowed the youngster to get behind the wheel of the car – which has a top speed of 204mph – at 777 Exotics yesterday.
Affleck, who’s been to rehab multiple times for booze addiction, and his girlfriend Jennifer Lopez were looking at different cars when they checked out the yellow Lamborghini Urus, which rents for $1,475 per day.
Samuel, whose mother is the actress Jennifer Garner, got in the front seat while the engine was still running and put it in reverse, rolling the car back into the front of the white BMW.
There did not appear to be any visible damage caused to either vehicle by the low-speed collision.
Affleck was stood outside the car at the time and Lopez was sitting behind Samuel on the driver’s side.
Afterwards, the Good Will Hunting star hugged his son and reassured him that he hadn’t caused any damage.
