So it survived this treatment for a few years.

Incredible moments and now off to wiki to try and understand what I just saw, did his daughter unleash the hounds of hell on him? This movie is a Ford fans dream, I thought there'd be loads more pics. Spotted an XR3 and a mk 2 Escort estate and so many Daimlers, Spitfires, Transit, Honda Civic, so many cars in that car park

The crash sequence struck me as bizarre & unrealistic, but I guess as it was supernatural powers that were behind the accident it could explain the way the Granada was raised up like that & slowly tipped over the wall. Well that’s how I’m rationalising it anyway.
