This is a mess !!!



  Mini Cooper S sport


Oooh that it is one binned Cup. Someone will have all those salvageable bits though.

Its worrying about the airbag, but that must be a fault, cant believe someone survived that.

There was a fatal crash in Hampshire this week which killed 6 guys, five in a Peugeot 106. From the pics you could hardly even see it was a car (its the mangled thing on the right of the pic).

just because a car is reduced to bugger all dont mean its a bad car. im actually glad to see it all crumpling nicely like that, imagine taking a crash and the entire front end as a shock absorber that crumples and takes most of the force away.

now try again in a volkswagon



Think you would have better chance in a volkswagon personally!! surely the clio cant be safer than a good solid VW!! I mean clio panels are made of tracing paper!




thats what i was implying, vws are rock solid, you have a nasty smash you will f**k up your neck/spine guarenteed

Id say the first as a big brake conversion doesnt exactly help when youre locked up and sliding with no ABS LoL
 


the airbag doesnt always go off as it is only for certain types of accident. there are times when the airbag would do more damage than good, ie, if you are unconscious after the crash, you may suffocate with the back wrapped around your head.

dont think ive EVER saw a crashed clio and the airbag has actually deployed..... dosent exactly inspire confidence in the cars safety measures, sh*te renaults.

dont really like the thought of explosives going off in my face anyway.

That rear bumper looks to be ok tho;)
