I wondered this while being driven around yesterday. There seems to be a disproportionate number of them. It's usually a slightly older model with the rear apron crumpled below the bumper as if they've reversed into a low bollard. Reply | Report as offensive | Link

Maybe they are prone to the exhaust mountings rusting away at the back of the mid section. They rust through and whilst the car is moving the rear section of the exhaust falls away - as it cannot drag along the ground it forces its way out - at the expense of the apron?

I had round 'dh' eyeglasses at school and was teased because it meant you were poor. Then John Lennon made 'em fashionable. Reply | Report as offensive | Link

I remember having one of these Polos and yes I did reverse into a high kerb and damaged the rear end. I got it fixed pretty quickly though and after that I was very careful when I reversed anywhere. Reply | Report as offensive | Link
