That's not fair, Tank vs. Omega, hope the Tank doesn't get damaged too much.

It was flattened it also took two of the wheels out so I didn't bother with them in the end

This is what was left they were going to try to go over the centre and save the wheels but it veered to the left slightly and 55 ton of chieftain tank doesn't really care where it goes
They said afterwards that if the ground had been wetter it would have pushed the car down rather than squash it so much

Seconded.

I appreciate that they're unloved, but destroy a complete shed, or at the very least strip it first...

That had Xenons fitted, with all the associated gubbins, all of which is in demand... apart from being a bit grubby the panels looked reasonable.
