Was watching vids on Liveleak, came across a Russian Car Crash compilation, and saw this. The grey vehicle. He hits the yellow bus and topples it.

Is it a bay?

Here is a link to the video, watch at 1:37

Nope. Knockoff.

The window pattern is what made me doubt it. Good video though, there is a brutal head on crash between a minivan and semitrailer before that.

Thanks!

Not a Bay.

The lines are wrong, the windows are wrong, the headlights are wrong...

Good thing. I'd hate to see a video of another bay getting crashed.

I've saw a Mercedes once that looked like that, minus the bull bar in front though. Up close it looks a lot more like a split than a bay.

UAZ van. Those things are tough!

Yeah, but that's where you'd *expect* to see one of those. Seeing one at the Williams rest area off I-5 or crossing the Richmond Bridge .. not so much. :twisted:

When I was studying in Moscow several years ago I came across a group of 4 drunk police officers who had gotten their UAZ van stuck in the snow. They ordered me to help them push it out of the snow drift and then they repayed the favor by not making me pay the "foreigner fee" (bribe), and then inviting me into the van to share in the beer and vodka while hooting and hollering at the women who passed us by. I learned a lot of vulgar Russian that nightand gained one of my fondest memories.

Moved from Bay.

Not a Bay Window.
