Am I right in thinking that the two people in the distant background are looking towards the source of the crash, looks like a skid mark across the road behind the fire engine?

Well, that's a testimony to the safety of the Aston in a crash then.

Idiots - If they were indeed racing - should be banned from driving for life.

It covers the frontal elements of the crash structure as well as the radiator. More importantly it is nice to see the engine plaque had stayed on (the little silver thing in the middle of the black plastic). Whoever signed off that car will be devastated to hear it's now written off!!!

Why are you showing us such a beautiful car ruined - I can barely watch the roll scene in Casino Royale without wincing and now this!!!!

The plastic at the front before the engine is NOT PLASTIC THIS IS METAL 90% of under the bonnet is metal not that horrid plastic

There i have said my piece

A quick trip to the body shop will sort this out, no problem.

The cars are "Front mid-engined" - engine almost entirely behind the front axle. It's the opposite of an Audi which has the engine mostly in front of the front axle and consequently understeers like a barge.


that S-Line bloke won't like this.

Sorry, man.

But that does look like a plastic cover of the radiator area..

Very impressive the car stood up to it so well!
