<VV> Crashworthiness humor

[Alan and Clare Wesson]

This is why I sold my 8-door. After we had an impact into the motorway 
barrier head-on at 65 and then a roll-over, following a blowout in an 80s 
sedan a few years back, which the whole family survived unhurt, I realised 
that we would have had no chance of surviving the crash in the 8-door, and 
so much as I loved it, I sold it.

We used to travel everywhere at 70 mph in it, and in 2002 we drove all the 
way down through France and back at that speed, with it full of kids, cement 
mixers, barbecues and bikes (all mixed up together).

I shudder to think about it now!

Cheers

Alan
