I know of someone who destroyed an old 2.8 Granada Estate (that barge thing) with a corsa. Granada was a write off, corsa wasn't that bad and carried on for years more...
Well, now on the bike site I use, one of the users staff at their firm, well they had an illegal driver (no license) drive on ice, at over 50mph.....
What happens??

You could put your willy through a wall. It's called a glory-hole.

Euro NCAP does:

The ability to plow through a brick wall hardly makes a corsa strong! In the case of the Granada it was probably just a case of (bad) luck!
