I was on a salvage auction website, and noticed this poor g40. I just hope the driver got out alive. Really hits home that you have to be careful! I have a 92 GT polo coupe, but one day i will have a g40. But it seems all are bent or have been bent
-
that does look nasty. where is that based? the salvage yard?
-
H or M plate grey one. Looks like a nasty loss of control that!
-
Oh my god... The driver...???
Really, how safe are the G40's???

i think the reality is any car hit in that position is pretty much doomed...even some of the newest cars. side impact safety is still something a lot of cars lack. i think the next decade or so will see a big leap in side impact safety think how far they have improved over the last decade untill now.

One around a tree is worth two in a bush!!

Ok... What about general safety of the G40s not only side impact. As a result.

Best bet is just try not to hit anyone or anything & you will never need to know :D
-
Haha... Sure not...
-
what salvage site is that on
-
It's a chance for parts car... Look at the engine bay.... You can use everything from in there...
-
I don't think I'd want anything off that car. It'd be weird.
-
hmm the parts might be cursed!

Looks like a tree or pulled out on a big bike going for it.
-
looks like someone let his missus park his car for him!!
Seriously, that looks serious. Think i'll slow down now (or buy a full on roll cage)
