Default Cars destroyed by JC

According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Clarkson):

Cars destroyed: Porsche 911, Perodua Kelisa, Yugo 45, Hyundai Accent, Lada Riva, Maserati Biturbo, Chevrolet Corvette, Morris Marina, Austin Allegro, Austin Montego, Nissan Sunny, Toyota Prius

I can remember some of these, but not all. Could anyone help list where each destroying happens? Thanks.

The 911 was a red one, he destroyed it in one of his videos(crasehd, dropped a piano on top of it, etc...), the Maserati biturbo was destroyed in Top Gear when they had the MC12 on and the Prius was gunned down in on of his videos. The other ones I can't remember. I'd love to see that corvette been destroyed

The Nissan Sunny was also from Top Gear. It should be changed because Richard did the section in which they used a rocket car to destroy the Sunny and a caravan.

That was a great bout of destruction: Clarkson pilots a helicopter armed with twin miniguns and chases a robot-driven 1988 Vette through the desert, and inevitably rips it to shreds. It's like he's playing me in my dreams or something.

It's pretty old, I have no idea where it's from.

Let's see if I remember how he did all these:

Porsche 911: Ran it into a wall, dropped a piano on it, poured acid on it, shot it, dropped a caravan on it (with explosives)

Perodua Kelisa: took a sledgehammer to it

Yugo 45: drove over it with a tank

Hyundai Accent: used it has a demo-derby car and then took to a scrap yard to have it compressed

Lada Riva: ripped it apart with two giant mining dump trucks

Maserati Biturbo: dropped a big weight from a crane onto it

Chevrolet Corvette: shot it to pieces with a helicopter gunship

Nissan Sunny: flung it up in the air with a medieval catapult

Morris Marina, Austin Allegro, Austin Montego: not sure, are those the cars he blew away with another assortment of guns?

Toyota Prius: blew it away with an assortment of guns

Yes, but I don't recall if that destroyed it.
