i dont know if this is the place to post this, but i was looking at this website showing crashed exotics and i saw this. http://www.wreckedexotics.com/newpho...weird686.shtml Its pretty bad, but a testament to the build quality of the mini!

 

Poor Xenons!
Poor MINI! yikes.

 

Looks like the poor thing was run over

 

Looks like the MINI tried to cross the road and a SUV ran over it.

 

WOW!!! Obviously rolled. I would like to know what they were doing to GET IT to roll!!!

 

Looks like their rally ended....

 

 

yikes....

Looks like it was modified too, i see H&R springs.

 

ouch ...that left a mark

 

Damn Hummer Drivers.....

 

Remember the episode of Mr.Bean where his Mini got flattened by a tank?

 

yah......ummm i doubt a hummer tipped the mini over on its top

 

nice to see it held up well around the drive seat area.. hope that person was able to walk away from that

 

You know... Some Zaino Z5 would take out most of those scratches...

 

So Who was it? I would be suprised if a high end spec car like this with mods is not a member of NAM......fess up! What happened?

 

To be honest, I think they took a bulldozer or other such crushing device to it. I mean, hello, the spring sitting right there? It doesn't look like a junkyard where you'd be salvaging, imo.

 

the side airbags have blown, it seems like it was in some sort of accident, and a pretty severe one at that before it came to rest here. how it got to that position i am not sure. also, the other car in the picture looks much less damaged and could be salvaged.

 

here's another one. it happened several months back in AZ.

 

Hmm, I see nice room for adding in a driveshaft down there....

 

Not unless you re-route the exhaust first!

 

not to get off topic, but im pretty sure the mini was designed with it in mind. (1 series based?) In the back, there is a driveshaft tunnel between she seats.
