    Still though, it's Justa helluva waste of a Chili Red/Black hardtop.

    You guys have it all wrong. It was a fast moving wall that ran into a stationary MINI, not the other way around. At least that's what my 18 year old would say in this situation.

    He's right too, when I was 16 a tree jumped in the middle of my lane then jumped back in the ground where it once was looking all innocent with a bit of missing bark. Trees do that...

    Walls too!

    That might have been funny if it wasn't a 2nd gen version.

    People like this is WHY mini put the trunk release under the rear seat in the back!!
    Interesting the car was not "stolen", and was regerstered....hm.....
    Folks make me wonder....
    Wish I had a google maps/earth view of the area...
    Seems to be an odd spot to miss a turn and wreck....
