I bet a SWMBO is involved I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

Whilst it is a Range Rover Classic, with a black spot on the roof (sat nav aerial?) I'm going for the theory that someone was going to Cornwall and using a very early version of satnav, typed in 'Rock' .....

def a FFRR, look at the verticle air intakes on the o/s front wing
Completely disagree! Look at the rear lights, clearly RRS FFRR!

satnav-rock comment
The frontal damage and airbag deployment shows it went in nose-first, and the broken rear glass suggests it then landed on its wheels with a bit of a bang.I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

If it did go in nose first, that's not very much frontal damage for the depth of the hole.
Are we sure thats its a hole, and not just a dead end thats opened on the side closest to us.
