Shocking sight! Stock-car Scorpio

Had a shock today between Mablethorpe and Louth! A Scorpio with a stock car racing "crest" welded onto the roof! 
What a waste!

Not necessarily, it might already have died in the real world. When mine finally dies I'd rather it did something fun like that than simply got scrapped...

'Tis a shame though, as much as people have fun with them, I hate to see old cars totalled like that. Went to one a few years back, saw a SII Jag XJ coupe and a Zephyr Zodiac mangled in the same evening, nearly cried myself to sleep
Did some reg checks on my old cars the other night, only one comes up as registered still, wonder what fate the others have suffered
I feel quite depressed now 
Regards, Bruce.

Good strong car the Scorp is...as Granadas in the past have always been.
In modern day banger racing the Scorp should be a good contender. 
I've not got enough fingers & toes to count the amount of times people have asked to buy my MK1 Granny for banger racing purposes.  ........
.......on yer bike mate
