Fortunately, no one was injured but both the Jaguar and the car wash station suffered extensive damage.

"I was waiting to enter behind him”, said a driver who witnessed the crash. “The car went through so fast and skidded and ripped the whole thing out.”

The car wash at the Buckshaw Tesco remains out of order today (Wednesday, May 31).

Tesco were approached for comment.
