they should do what they do in some open day events where they crush the cars with a tank  those crossfires would be a perfect specimen to crush  edit: and theres me thinking it couldn't of got any worse  the ones with the spoilers on them, dear oh dear  edit why are there loads of rover 75's? again those should be crushed too, they have tvs, fridges and even a "james bond" type device underneath a secret compartment as my uncle has one but my uncle never drives it cos he thinks the rover 75 is some sort of deluxe collecters item when its not  would you not sell your car and buy something that sounds like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XI-V5xdtoqw

Not many of them on the road already. Those are the SRT6 models. They use Mercedes AMG innards (the Crossfire is based on the Mercedes SLK platform). I guess it was decreed somewhere that they had to look sufficiently different to the standard models which have an automatic spoiler. Personally, I think that those fixed spoilers are horrible. It was a gathering of car clubs - mostly for classics and sports cars, so there we old Porsches, Ford Capris, Subaru Imprezzas, Jaguars, and so on. No need. They are proper growlers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBMEyHlt ... ata_player

We used to go to Combe a lot. We used to do track days up there, it is great circuit, although the dip between Hammerdown and Tower is a killer - literally, I've seen many cars lose it there, the dip is exactly on the breaking point and a lot of people misjudge it and end up slamming their pride-and-joy into the tyre wall there.

That happened when we were there. They had to remove a car, put the tyre wall back and clean up oil.
