Dramatic pictures show a £50,000 Aston Martin smashed and flipped onto its back after a musician went for a joyride in the sports car before crashing into a lorry. 

George Jones, 20, who does not have a driving license and has 'ADHD issues', tried to overtake a HGV before clipping its rear wheel and flipping the six-litre V12 sports car on November 12 in Gloucestershire.

Jones' father had hired the Aston Martin Rapide from Priority Hire on November 9 and was due to return it the day of the crash. 

Nobody else was permitted to drive it.  

Jones yesterday admitted aggravated vehicle taking and driving without a licence or insurance at Gloucester Crown Court. 

He was given eight months detention in a young offenders institute, suspended for twelve months, and ordered to complete 250 hours of unpaid work.

Shocking photos taken after Jones had flipped the vehicle and run off show it flipped onto its back with a wheel snapped off near his Cotswold village.

Pieces of the sports car can be seen littering the road as the body work looks bent and contorted, showing signs of serious damage.

After the crash, the car's value had dropped to £15,000 and it had to be written off.

The court heard that at 10.45am on the day of the incident, Jones was heading back into Painswick on the A46, overtaking a number of cars.

But when he tried to overtake a lorry at the head of the line, Jones misjudged his manoeuvre, clipped the back of the HGV with his rear wheel arch.

The Aston Martin overturned and landed on its roof, the court was told. 

Prosecutor Alex Daymond said the lorry driver felt a shunt which had enough force to knock him forward in his seat.

'He looked in his mirror and saw a black vehicle doing a cartwheel,' Mr Daymond said.

The lorry driver got out and saw Jones 'crawling across the roof of the car' before saying 'I am f***ing off' and running away, the court was told (pictured: The Aston Martin Rapide before the crash)

The lorry driver got out and saw Jones 'crawling across the roof of the car' before saying 'I am f***ing off' and running away, the court was told. 

The vehicle was quickly traced through the hire company to Jones' father, and the police attended the address.

Jones was arrested and admitted the offence.

'The vehicle sustained a considerable amount of damage,' Mr Daymond said.

'It was worth £50,000 but following the accident its salvage value was now £15,000 and was written off.

'The company also lost income from eight weddings they had to cancel to a value of £4,400,' he said.

Defence lawyer Joe Maloney said: 'As a result of the incident on the 12th November, he was quite shaken up. And remains quite shaken.

'This caused great concern in the household. His mother is here in support of him

'They (his parents) are perplexed. He is only 20 years of age and has no previous
