It's usually the back that gets crumped on TVRs (too much power on the exit from bends....)

The question has to be asked, do you have the owners permission to post this picture?
I sure as hell would not be impressed with a picture my mashed up car being posted on the internet!

Just a thought

Mcbrun555:

The Questions could also be asked,

Why does he need the owner’s permission?

Why do you think the owner is like you and would not be impressed with a picture of his mashed up car being posted on the internet?

Please answer, I am not being rude just want to know.

My car is my pride and joy and if it did get written off i would not want it to be published, that is my opinion.

Thanks for your opinion.

If I take a picture do I ask for everybody’s permission or opinion who may be stood in the street, beach or field?

not saying I should, just don't want to impose my values on others.

Any other opinions?
