Like the way the wheel parked itself very neatly.
Reminded me of the incident some time ago in OZ on The Bathhurst 1000 car race were a car hit the barrier and the wheel rolled down the hill and parked itself on top of a crash barrier built out of tyres.

guess the tight Censored opted for the cheaper electric tailgate option instead like an idiot (you never know when you might need a parachute !! ) Laughing

I reckon it was done on purpose because the guy really wanted a Freelander 2, and not one of those.

Back in the 70's a young lad was bought a brand new Capri 1.6 for his first car and he was expecting a 3 litre, he went out and destroyed the car in a fit of rage.
