Looks like a A2 that has rolled itself. No front left, screen cracked all over, roof dented, and back also badly damaged. Engine looks like bits are missing, e.g. radiator. Guy connects battery and turns on ignition and engine starts, then lots of error messages on the dash but it keeps running.............
 
A real shame, looks like it was a 1.2L as well ('eco' light, auto box, not to mention the title of the vid...)
 
Translates as
Audi A2 3L. A2 left the Autobahn at 80mph for reasons unknown. Hit a motorway signpost and rolled several times - car finished up on its roof.
Passenger compartment mostly intact. All doors open. Driver [translator: driver was male] could let himself out and was uninjured apart from a few small cuts caused by flying glass.
 
was chatting to a Danish pilot today, was saying most 1.2's had new gearboxes fitted in Denmark that one looked all shiny too
 
That is a bad smash. It is reassuring to know that the guy walked away with a few scatches. At least if the worst happens then you are proberly going to be ok.

Cheers
