I have been on both sides of this, having done it and having it done to me. When done to me, it was enough to ripple the boot floor, when I did it I caused significant damage to both cars. Modern bumpers dont reveal the truth of the forces involved. Its funny how much energy you can get up in three yards when you are trying to nip out sharpish into a traffic stream. Dont discount the potential.
