Default 5th Gear.Amazing revelation.

Just watched an episode on Discovery.
Wow!
This was amazing.Guess what happens when you drive a Ford Focus at 120mph into a f8ck-off great big concrete block?

No.you'll never guess.

I was shocked.The Focus ended up destroyed & half the size.
Who'd have thought it?

They deserve an award.

Ah well,at least we are not paying for it.

I prefered the Smart car into concrete wall at 60mph.

Yes it did quite well, its stayed in shape and you could open the doors and everything.

Ok teh driver/passenger would be dead due to the G-force. But thats not the point (or is it ).

Could they please do it to an Insignia, and get all of the sales reps in the country to watch it.

Well, you never know when you might come across a massive steel reinforced concrete block in the middle of the road.
