    I've got an old VHS, no idea where it came from, featuring "crash tests" of trains. Old school steam engines that were pending the crusher were bought cheap and crashed into each other. Call it a demonstration, crash test, whatever, but spectators were most definitely there.

    I can't decide if this is supposed to be an actual endurance advertisement or just a really boring stunt show.

    You see, this is why the IIHS and NHTSA crash all new cars through a wall of fire. How else would you know that you and your family be safe, if you were to crash into a wall of fire?

    looks like they are trying to sell to law enforcement.

    RELATED I went through the NHTSA training for passenger safety in the late 90's to participate in child safety seat installations and related community service. During the training class we were shown films from Germany where they used live prisoners for crash testing, during lunch no less. They were taken around the 1950's. No one is killed but they are a hoot to watch. Has anyone else seen these? and if so are they available online?

    Too bad this can't be a direct-injection 1.4L TD. Then we'd get 260 torques and 65 MPG.

    Oh, and it'd last forever...or until some bonehead put gasoline in it a 15th time. #laautoshow

    @that ain't the way to have fun, son:
    It's available in Europe already, with a 2 liter turbodiesel with 150 HP. It's not very economical though, for European standards that is.

    We used to get awesome North American premieres like the Bugatti Veyron, Ferrari 599 GTB and the Venturi Fétish.

    This year we get some run of the mill Chevy and a Toyota van. #laautoshow

    Uh, yeah. Of course. The exotic chick has never seen an automobile before, so she's startled when this dull, square, uninspired beast lumbers through her tropical paradise.
    Yeah, that must be it.

    Either that, or the driver is her Dad looking for her because she's SO in trouble for skipping school again. #eurosport
