He said: “That’s it, McLaren. It was great, but we need to move on.
“Thanks for the support.”
Brand new, the 212mph supercar costs about £200,000, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Russian Evgeny was seen buying the second-hand orange Lada in cash before placing a McLaren sticker on the bonnet and boot.
He even added the rear spoiler from the McLaren 720S to his old banger.
Evgeny posed in front of both his orange cars before taking the Lada out for a spin.
He said: “Everyone has their ups and downs.”
The modern-day daredevil often takes huge risks to capture his spectacular footage, including jumping over moving vehicles and leaping over planes.
His stunt attempts have seen him hospitalised on multiple occasions, making him an online cult figure.
He said he sees himself as a pioneer who pushes the limits of the human body with every project, often without any safety precautions.
