You'd be surprised how low an impact speed can do that sort of damage. From that I would guestimate an impact speed of about 20mph

As per Oranoco.

My mate hit thebackofa car at 15mph in his fiesta and it needed a new bonnet, 2 new wings and a front panel.
MK3's just dont absorb the impact like newer cars do.

RIP car... is he breaking it?? :bonkers:

He was doing about 40ish near the reebok on a duel carrageway, he was in the third lane, the lights had gone to green so he didnt need to slow, a guy in the middle lane pulled over to the third lane just after settng off so was probz still in 1st gear, the fez ended up hitting the drivers side rear 1/4 of his car,

The lad who bought it is the same lad i bought it off so he is as gutted as me, he bought it as a 1 lady owner 1.1 about 4-5 years ago and fitted the rs1800 engine and the rest...
