The paper thin panels on the Subaru Impreza didn't take kindly to the new 'heavy duty' sponge from JML

it'll end up as a rally car i'd imagine, cos it'd be fully stripped and rebuilt anyway.

I would say it is quite possible that it could end up back on the road, after all most of the damage is only the cosmetic panels Doors, Bonnet. Wings etc...

Its not been a very high speed impact as the glass is still ok, when you have a big roll the first thing to go is the glass as the shell twists. Rear wing looks ok too. I reckon it was a low speed roll onto soft ground, into grass or something. If you roll over without a cage at anything above 30 or 40mph the roof will just let go.
