HORROR pictures show the fiery aftermath after a driver smashed his brand-new £250k Ferrari into a tree on the very night he bought it.

The man, who owns two clothes shops on the resort island of Mykonos, had only bought the powerful sports car moments earlier, and had driven just 3km (2 miles) before losing control of the vehicle and swerving off the road.

Tzortzis’ body was pulled from the car and transferred to a morgue in Voula.

His wife, Athina Kontopanou was in the car with him at the time.

She was helped from the burning wreckage by Greek singer Stan, who saw the tragedy unfold while driving behind the car.

Shocking video published by the Greek news site Iefimerida shows the moment the Ferrari is engulfed in flames.

His wife is able to escape, but after running a few metres, she collapses in front of the vehicle.

Tzortzis appeared on the Greek version of the reality show “The Wall” in 2003 when he was a 23-year-old Computer Science student.

Famagusta News reports how he stole the show thanks to his temperament and appearance.

He also began a passionate love affair with fellow contestant Sissy Giannakopoulou which ended not long after the show finished.

Tzortzis grew up on Mykonos and returned there to open his own branded clothes shops, which he operated under the name ‘Georgey’.

He and Athina had two children, while his sister Katerina Monogiou is an MP for the New Democracy Party.

In a 2020 interview, she spoke publicly about her brother on “The 2Night Show” hosted by Grigoris Arnaoutoglou.

Describing their childhoods in Mykonos, she said: “My dad was very strict, a puritan. In my adolescence there was no way out if I was not accompanied by my mum or my brother.”

Under her most recent Instagram post, dated January 2, a number of people have left heartfelt comments expressing their sympathies.

“My sincere condolences,” one user wrote.

“I am very sorry for this difficult moment of your life. Courage,” another added.

While a third commented: “Your brother was a wonderful person! Forever in our hearts!”

Police believe no other vehicles were involved in the accident, but are studying camera footage of the scene of the crash in order to work out the conditions on the night.
