Did a quick google on it, it was the 2007 Jim Clark Rally, the scoob was on the limiter over the jump (estimated 136mph).

Both drivers were winded and the shock absorbers burst which caused a fire (i guess on the hot brake components) and the rear of the car was bent about six inches out of shape! Strut braces bent too (so we can imagine what damage the chassis had...)

This is the video taken by one of the people i knew on the jump (some of you may know her as Scoobychick, used to be an Admin over on scoobynet):
