Ok I am totally confused (I know it doesnt take much :roll: ) How did so much wall in front of the vehicle get destroyed and how did he end up on his side? A defender would have driven up that wall no problem so was he trying to reverse off it when we ended up like that?

i reckon he was coming from the right hand side, mounted the pavement and demolished that stretch of wall while spinning round almost 180 degrees and tipping over.
so he is now facing back the way he came (nearly)

agree with ian.. probably not paying attention, caught the kerb, then the wall, drag of the wall slows o/s front corner, n/s rear overtakes it and over she goes!



....it`ll polish out!!  :lol:

I think the driver actually jumped the parked MX5, a then doing a full rotation took out the wall with the cb ariel. Then landed it like that to gain maximum points. :)
