If you've ever seen all of Lock, Stock & 2 Smokin' Barrels, the 'head guy' definitely deserved all Vinnie (actually the P6's door) dealt him there! The car (several cars unfortunately) didn't deserve what they got but hey, I'm (we're?) biased! You can apparently buy models of Guy Ritchie's movie car & characters if you're interested enough. To that end, the cars sacrificed in the making did their part towards P6 education, so a shame? of course yes, pointless? - dunno.....
On a more technical front, ever compared the satisfying P6 door 'clunk' to that of most modern vehicles? You must have! First time I closed INBD's doors I had to do it several times to recall what a real car should/used to sound & feel like. Anyone got an mp3 of a smart-car door closing? - probably sounds like a small fridge. My truck doors do "clunk" when anyone closes one - it should with curb-weight at over 3 tons but you know what? - it's just not anywhere as satisfying at all. I can't wait to roll-up at work in a real car, slam the door, be happy no-one's head will mess up the interior & do my bit to help spread the good word. Some day.....
