How long before someone puts up a post saying. "That'll buff out"? :p:p

The damage seems to be fairly evenly distributed between front and rear, so it looks as if you gave as good as you got. :D

The front on damage was intentional, as it was untouched and the rear was getting pretty bad.

Not sure ATM. It has spark and the fuel pump is still working, I have a feeling that the pickup in the tank may be kinked, or not reaching fuel ( I only had 20 litres )

Volvo station wagon, in reverse, is the most unstoppable demo-derby weapon in the world.

Plus destroying Volvos = good.
Destroying Jags = sad.

I'll upload some soon. It went well, but lost both front tyres...... My fault, I dropped the pressure for traction, and the rest is history. It still drives, but I don't think it can do another?

You didn't sikaflex the tyres to the rims???

Seems like FWD is a better option overall given all the rear damage on the Jag????

Destroying both = SAD IMHO:mad::mad:. :mad::twisted:. Why destroy products of Iconic and groundbreaking marques.....thats why Holdens were invented.

You need to find a Rolls Royce or a Bentley next it's the obvious choice.

I doubt that the other cars could bend a Rolls and you have about 20' between the bumper and the radiator and the boot and the rear wheels plus they are made of 1/2" steel plate (well seems like it).

They weigh so much that you will always have traction and the other cars will not move you.

Oh and after the Rolls........Maybach.....:p
