And fuck off, that ain't no 20mph impact. Also, that screen isn't coming out at 20mph without person or airbag assist, and as we know, the S1 doesn't have airbags - so unless the driver or passenger wasn't wearing a seat belt.....
20mph into a car doing the same in the opposite direction is stall a fair impact

As for the screen, it's just a rubber seal holding it in, not exactly difficult to remove. It's not like a modern bonded in car screen

And the fact the car has a cage, means any softer parts at the front end will crumple even more as there are less crumple zones

Damage doesnt look anything particularly strange.

How badly was the innocent persons car damaged ?
