To be fair, looking at the cars they've destroyed....they were all wrecks before they started. I can't see the harm in destroying something with no real value, which is easily replaced, and which isn't at all rare or cherished.

What is sad is when something unusual is destroyed. I have a nasty feeling both a 66 and a 164 are about to be crushed at my favourite scrap yard :( And the other half of my bodykit was crushed with the car (note: before I got hold of it!!)

Would you like a red interior Aymat? I see those in the scrap yard occasionally...

cheers

Note the rear view mirror in the yellow car!
Even a mirror of that size could not prevent him from being crushed. :lol:
