Greeks in Greece drive like nuts. Would not surprise me he was doing something stupid. Definately hooning. Serves him right for i) hooning ii) driving an Audi. :P

The speed has stopped at just under 100kmh, probably when that nice metal skewed thru the instrumentation panel. I'd be saying 140+ at impact.

oh my! That is insane, so lucky...

Similar incident a few years back though with my friends sisters parter.
Took a brand new VE commodore out for a spin (they were drinking that night and took it out basically to go for a hoon - I don't condone any of this by the way!)

Long story short, they went around a corner, lost control and somehow a pole managed to puncture the front passenger seat, very lucky passenger was thrown out of the way by another impact as the pole impaled the car.. it only tore off a chunk of his arm instead..
