thing is showing some one crashes isnt going to help anyone believe me ive seen my fair share due to what the wife does..ie two trucks hit half and half and the pics i sawthe cab had been ripped open the boy was still holding the steering wheel but his legs were on the ground at the side
and also a 17 year old who had been driving too fast rolled his car and when rolling he came out the window and the car rolled over him so the pic showed him hanging out the window but all of his blood was on the roof..the passenger was ok..
and to be honest its not slowed me down... im not a nutter of a driver can just be a quick one sometimes

I think they don't depreciate as quickly in the US, so more like £30k+ at least.


For me anyway, the fact it's not a £150 s***box (why does that not get blanked out?) is exactly the reason why we're discussing it, there was value in it that could have been used to help crash victims or whatever, but it's wasted by crushing it.

To make the point and not waste it, breaking for parts would be the most sensible option, but if as 2tongues mentioned that's a tricky area in the US then this is the only option.

I bought my IS250 SE-L new and it was £33K on the road in the UK. Bit peeved as when the IS-F was introduced into the USA it was the same price, more or less, as I'd paid for my IS250.
The IS-F in the UK is nearer £56K, so it follows the rough guide that what costs in UK costs the equivalent in the USA in dollars. There's probably exceptions to this, but the only items I have found to be similar or slightly more expensive in the USA is computer hardware/component parts.

Well I'd swop our petrol bills with theirs anytime. Overall their energy costs are lower, which is probably why they're not too worried about using so much.

Not in Arizona they weren't - electricity that is.

Yea fuel is cheap, but you have to drive a long way to get anywhere, so it still is a % chunk of your wages, and salary's are lower, tax is higher medical costs a fortune etc so its not directly comparable. Of course no public transport in 80% of the country.
