I believe it was a dealer demonstrator out on a photoshoot. It was parked with the back end jutting slightly into the road and a truck hit it.
Very sad to see.

If it was parked up the ignition must have been on for the airbags to have gone off. I wonder if they will repair it.

I was gonna say that the RS must be good fun if their being written off at this rate, since its now number 2.
Shame though

Oops. Still this is what insurance is paid for.
Not going to pass any comments on the accident and how it happened as oddly I wasn't there. Speculation is pointless. Number of people that have seen the pic of my brothers Cavalier on its side in a residential area and concluded (wrongly) he was driving like a twat.
