HOW do you hit a wingmirror and nothing else on the door panel?

cant decide it it "fell off the back of a lorry" or whether it was hit by debris from the storms??
90,000 doesnt look much when you crunch it up does it!! I bet the owner (if it has one yet) must be gutted... wait a year or so for your car to arrive then this happens to it. :boohoo:

Why are the wheels perfect but the car is wrecked on axle stands....very odd. Doesn't look like a normal accident.

It looks exactly like a normal accident to me.
I would guess the car was spun on a motorway or dual carriageway, so it has been 'top and tail'ed.
its got damaged wheels on opposing corners, which also supports the assumption of a spin.

The roof would appear to have been cut off, and possibly the drivers door forced open / removed.

Jeff, axle stands may be as a result of damaged / broken suspension. hitting a kerb at 10mph with some steering lock on will bend things, so doing same at anything approaching 3 figures will certainly make a mess. For example, think back to the RS6 that hit a tree and broke in half... :|
