He's done very badly indeed there. If he was stopped with the handbrake applied then I can see no reason why the fault shouldn't lie entirely with the rear car.

Thats true cos you've seen ''alot of them being ragged'' havent you.

The majority of them have been more looked after than the way half of the clowns like yourself that know jack about cars.

so please do stfu.

tbh (trying to think of a word thats like most, but isn't due to bold statementism) a few () of the cars in classifieds I'd think would be well looked after because they are good fella's who take pride in their motor (a_j_mair, Dna etc)

wouldent matter if they had been "ragged" as long as they are serviced properly and well maintained, old couples rarely lift the bonnet and never go above 30 mph so the engine will be coked up etc

Gutted mate - fair bit of damage for 20mph too.

I would have got out and smacked them senseless

Glad your ok though.

Wanna buy an XE gsi
