Below are three pictures from a reported auto accident involving a 1986/87 Mercedes Benz and the Laforza Prima 4X4. As you can see from the photographs the Laforza took a strong hit from the Mercedes Benz in the rear of the Laforza. Damage to the Laforza was light as you can see with the Mercedes Benz being totaled from the impact.
