That looks surprisingly similar to a car that was taken past my house on the back of a trailer this morning. Lad up the road has rolled his Clio Cup last night, car is proper bashed up like in the photo, luckily he is OK.
That's taken one serious beating. Bet he's not got a job soon.

GMP reviewing their policy on officers test driving cars.... there were no other vehicles involved in the accident...
:lol:
Glad the guy's OK though.
£40k for a golf :o
GMP should stick to the 4x4 evos and impezas for intercept cars for that kind of money. Not these understeery glorified golfs.

Rather have the golf tbh, probably won't need servicing every 2500 miles and get more than 9 mpg when you cane it.
I think the golfs have a brilliant chassis.
But stick a big heavy engine in the front of a front wheel drive car and the handling can be transformed.

Well aren't the fast golfs 4x4 anyway?
Each to their own I guess, I'd have the golf :)

...The officer was a member of the force's automatic number plate recognition intercept team, which works to disrupt the criminal use of motor vehicles.
