Last night I was talking with a Road Crash guy (he's the one who operates 'jaws of life' to cut trapped folk out of crashed cars).

 

His hates those European cars - they are much harder to cut up! Much tougher reinforcement is built into them - sometimes it breaks the jaws.

 

I admit he didn't comment on chinese cars.
