You obviously didn't see Top Gear when they tried to destroy a toyota truck.
A fire in the cab and it still ran
Hitting it with a demolition ball and it still ran
Strapping it down and letting the tide come in and drown it then
Letting the sea wash it away by accident and it still ran
Putting it on top of a building then blowing the building up and
IT STILL DROVE INTO THE STUDIO
So depending on the vehicle it might still be a runner
might still be a runner not gonna be a looker tho is it lol
:suspect: it could be used to have BBQ's on

In comparison to some of my cars, it may well be. Anyway a few singe marks means it wont be the most desirable looking car to steal!!
lol very true could rent it out for barbecues

Some cars are totally indestructible, like MK I Fiestas. I have one which has been set on fire in a car park 10 years ago in Hillsborough.......been jumped up and down on by a gang of chavs....been driven into by a 60 bus in 1997, been reversed twice into a wall and a gate by girlfriend, and finally caught fire again in 2002 off its own accord due to a fractured fuel hose spurting fuel on the engine.
Yes, its still on the road!!! However, it does look a bit of a warhorse.....give us a wave.....
did anybody NOT have a car stolen in the shiregreen/parsoncross area on that night!
I thought that they had taken up joy riding as a hobby
Jon, if it was blocking your path the police would have towed it away. Setting fire to it was a bit harsh.

Whilst on a fieldtrip for one of my degree modules....we were just about to leave when ahead we saw a huge colum of black smoke...yes a car had been dumped and sat on fire almost infront of us - was much more interesting watching the firemen arrive and put it out than leaving!!!
