A globetrotting friend of mine recently sent these pictures from the Rigas Museum in Latvia.
The car belonged to L.Brezhnev general secretary of the CPSU. He was fond of luxury cars and liked to drive himself. He crashed the car (1966 Shadow) in Moscow in 1980. Note how well the passenger cell has stood up.
I think the expression on the dummys face in the last picture sums up the moment before impact perfectly!
