What have you done today with your Austin Seven

[Reckless Rat]

Surely the rear tank on a long chassis seven is just as vulnerable in a rear ender? Let's get things in proportion guys. OK it's a risk but everything in life is a risk. Is it manageable, of course. If it worries you, there are always fuel tanks that can be retro fitted with "explosafe" mesh inside which reduces the risk even further.  Before you jump off the deep end, do some research and find out how many A7s have been involved in a rear end collision in the last 10 years that resulted in a split fuel tank. Evidence please, not just anecdotes.
