    Over here there are a lot of cars running off the road and damaging the walls of houses. The cars are generally wrecked as a result. That Pontiac would no doubt go straight through and come hurtling out the other side and only need a quick wipe with a damp cloth.

    Mate of mine knew an old banger, said she was game for any one with the time and money. Wonder how she finished up??

    I had a LADA for a few years, that was built like a Tank,
    Several other cars ran into it during that time and they were wrecked and not a mark on the LADA
    Always felt safe in it.
