When Volvo Meets Peugeot

[tempra]

Spent a nice day with our family having a barbecue and a few beers, then an accident occurred around the corner.

This is what happens when a Peugeot bumps into a Volvo.

The police were actually chasing the Pug when the accident happened, and the occupants fled from the scene - one of them was captured, and the dogs were let out to find the other one.

A closer view of the impact area on the Volvo - note the scratched bumper and smashed indicator lense.

Looking from the other direction, I think the peugeot came off slightly worse :mrgreen:

This was about three hours ago, and they have now closed the road as it is a crime scene with pug still sat there. My guess is that it wasn't just a stolen car, as the number plates appear to have been changed - not very cleverly - as they have put a rear (yellow) number plate on the front, and a front (white) number plate on the rear.

Probably stolen for a robbery, but I expect the police noticed the incorrect plates and tried to stop them, I suppose that means that a volvo has more power than the police!

That peugeot took a battering compared to the volvo! Volvos are obviously pretty tough cars...

And lmao @ stupid criminals getting the plates the wrong way round!

Depends on the angle of impact. I once saw a Citroen largely demolish a Merc.

Where is that photo taken? My UK home is Oxford, though I don't get there very often.

They sure are interesting, I will say that much. We need ones that fancy around here so we see them better...there is no way to miss one of those cars.
