Here are the words of Jay Kay himself: "We're on tour in Germany and this guy had to take it half a mile down the road. And for some reason he's got his kids in the car and he decides he's going to give it a squirt. And you just don't give those cars a squirt because they just... they, they are difficult to control and you... you know, you have to be sensible with them. They're for tracks really, really are for track really you know or driving along way across Europe and stuff. Giving it a squirt and he hit something, he's come up too fast behind someone and there was alot of weight travelling there. Umm..he hit some dirt and lost it. He must have been doing 80mph, I suppose. Anyway, then what happened is that they said, "You can't use the car for the video and we have four days to the video." and I said right, I was devastated. There was only one other purple one in the country and I thought it was very relevant that cosmic and the purple color, its an outrageous color, it could only be that combination and there was only one other and luckily this guy was selling his. He was selling his so we..we got ahold of that one, it got put on the transporter, it got taken to Almaria, in Spain. And I said specifically said that nobody take them off the transporter to play with them because what they wanted to do is get some "precision" drivers, not "stunt" drivers, "precision" drivers. Well I said I don't want anybody else driving it, you know, we'll do the driving, thank you very much. Which we did the majority of in the end. But they want start filming some stuff we weren't going to do. And this "precision" driver "precisely" took it around the corner and "precisely" let the back end come out and knocked the camera crew off a cliff and caused 20,000 pounds worth of damage to it. That was the second one. You'll see on the video is that the wind screen is missing. On the second cut when you see me singing away, the wind screen is missing, so they've taken the bonnet off and camera facing in there. So I'm driving around with this camera right there, around these mountain roads and trying to sing to the song but in fact that if the glass had been there you wouldn't have been able to see it. So it was quite amusing and it's all down at Lamborghini at the moment being fixed up. So I said..i said hehe, I just laughed, well that's a lie, in fact I shouted so much that I didn't have enough voice to do a gig afterwards."
