I would like to start a thread where users can post pictures of Festivas in accidents, duress and trauma. This is not meant to offend anyone, just serve as an example of what could possibly happen.

My son was driving at the time and was hit at about 60km/hr (36MPH) while stopped at a red light. The impact drove the car into the back of the Jeep Cherokee in front. If you look closely you can see where the Jeep's trailer hitch and exhaust pipe made their impression in the Festiva bumper. The back end of the car was equally "modified" with the result of being unable to open the hatch.

Here is a pic from Malta. Here is another Malta Pride.
I was on a website looking at hundreds of crashes.
Their "Show us your crash pics" is more popular than our "What have you done to your Festiva lately"
This one is my favorite. Deleted uranium cone.
There is even a pic of the guy's motorcyle lying on top of the car's roof.Last edited by bravekozak; 01-24-2014, 09:08 PM.Comment
