A PERFORMANCE car overturned on a road into Worcester last night.

The silver Aston Martin DB7 left the A449 Ombersley Road, near to the Claines roundabout, at about 9.40pm, when it is thought to have hit a tree.

A police spokesman said: "It went off the the road. The driver was uninjured so we are not seeking any witnesses."

The spokesman said the driver was seen walking in the direction of Worcester following the crash and later returned to the scene to recover the £40,000 motor, from the company made famous in the James Bond movies.

Traffic was not affected.
