Hey ! Anyone see "Ultimate Crash Tests"
Hosted by Quentin Wilson @8pm Channel 5 tonight???
They used a Facelift 7 series Estate in a 37mph head to head crash to see the damage. Bandits!!! I never even got the chance to salvage any of bits off it!!! :-) It was Aquamarine with tan leather and auto, and they happily wrote it off !! Not Happy :-( Could have used some good parts off it:-) Ahhhh! Well! Regard Dave M |

very little apparent damage to the volvo, however, the staionary fiat sports car which was rear ended was approx 3 feet shorter after the crash! wonder if the tester would be brave enough to repeat the test but this time driving the fiat into the volvo! |

Wouldn't it just bounce off? Causing some nasty polishing work to be done to the boot lid? :)

Nah! That's why they fitted the car out with head light wipers on the front, to wipe any S**t off the bonnet Te....He :-) :-)

RE: Hey ! Anyone see "Ultimate Crash Tests"
On a similar vein I was looking for an engine for a 240 and found one in a scrappy. The estate car was not partiicularly old but for some reason there were 4 bald tyres. Apparently the driver had flipped it on a motorway doing 100+ and there was not one single panel anywhere on the car !!! Engine was OK though. Cheers Nigel
