Apologies if I am not suppose to post this sort of pic, have seen wrecked exotic stuff on here so assumed it would be ok? If not please let me know.

That looks bad. Unbelievable that the driver was only lightly injured. :shock: Too bad the RS is dead though.

Maverick7k, at the forum I think they said he hit a tree.

coloradosilver, the driver survived. He was lightly injured.

Wow, that is sick. Living after that is pretty amazing I tried to translate the german message board to find out more about it but altavista's babblefish made it even more confusing....

"Naja, still drive like S ** and then with summer tires!
Absoluteno-amplifier-change-eat-absolute!

The driver can talk about luck that any longer did not happen to him! "

Airbags do work man. If he is a car fanatic, and that was his savings of a lifetime, I'm pretty sure that he wished airbags didnt pop.

That says something for Fords crash test rating i think. That car is mangled beyond recognition and the guy lived.

Wow, now that's a nasty wreck. The guy was really lucky to only have minor injuries.....

That is one lucky driver - to get away from smacking a tree with only light injuries, he should be more careful of them wooden pedestrians :mrgreen:
