at first the most importand - the driver was all right after this crash
the car is a standard 1.7 that was converted into a dutch Police car youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7h54iLW392E maybe an admin could embed the video - it seems that I'm too stupid (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Attached image(s)

Glad to hear the driver was ok.
That being said, if I'm a cop, the 914 would definitely not be a car I'd want assigned to me. Should have been saved for fund raising events or something. |

Is that a real police car in service or somebody's clone? Who in their right mind (cop) would drive one in today's world?

NEVER a good thing when you're 'teabagged' driving your 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

All things considered, it looks like the 914 did what it’s supposed too. The front crumpled absorbing the energy, and the windshield did a pretty good job of preventing incursion. It would be interesting to know how fast the 914 was going when it smacked the minivan.

I'm surprised how well the A pillars held (especially with the roof off). |

I'm ashamed to admit that I inflicted similar damage to my first 914 in 1979, don't ask...
Back then it only cost $1300.00 to fix. Times have changed. |
