DII Saved My Life
#11
I had someone in an older Jeep Cherokee pull out in front of me today. I nearly T-boned them, had to slam on the brakes and could hear the tires squeal a little bit. Rovers are so rigid, I can only imagine what it would have done if I didn't react in time. Especially the RR with its brush guard. The frame and bumpers are so chunky and heavy on these things. And even though they are monsters, they do stop well and are nimble enough in most cases to avoid an accident all together.
Glad to hear you are ok! The people in the Z3 are very luck!

I agree with your post but I wonder if there is a difference between the D1 and the D2. Remember the D1 was designed in 1989 I believe.

EDIT: looks like it fares slightly better than the D1:
Second Edit: I think i'd like some steel plate to stop the tire from taking my legs out.

(Both would still end up totaled, but the D2 would probably hold up much better than the stock D1 in the test.)
