I love how the door kinda stays ok, but the floor/sill bend and the seats seem to come off the runners.

Not bad really lol 56kph is that 30mph?
I'd like to see the same test with a xe/let in.
lol @ the floor! Reminds me of the Chinese attempts. Important difference being that the Nova was 1983 and I mean 2008/9. lol

makes you feel safe thoose do , wonder what m cap score it got lol
Found that on youtube earlier too, yeah I think it's about 35mph, quite scary when you consider you happily do twice that speed, and that's the damage at 35!!
The rollover test is quite cool too, this one's a little more reassuring than the impact:

Bean tin FTW!
If you think they fold up that easy, imagine them twisting with a let it!

And these vids are presumably of brand new novas, imagine what would happen with a particularly rusty example...
