BE AWARE IT CAN BITE
Food for thought.
A timely reminder how easy it can come to a end.

And these cars are better engineered than ours, so take care out there it will happen when you least expect it.

WOW, you have a very good eye.
That does look frightening to see so much damage.

Its a LHD, if you count the graduations it is infact only 90kph, you would think it was well in excess of that to do that sort of job, also note the drivers airbag has not deployed

Yeap you are right 90 and not 100, thought it might of been kph and not mph thats why i didn't put mph down.
It probably was well in excess of that when the driver actually lost control, i'm guessing that was the speed at time of impact or at least one of the impacts. Thats still hitting a tree at 50ish mph.
Audi air bags work well then, not that it probably would of helped much judging by the state of the car.

Bread and butter for me seeing this and no way was he doing 90 kph to end up like that, speedo would have stopped at snap point but that was going faster. Also dont know if its already been chopped up by big jaws already, could well have been. But its still a good one!
