Great attitude to have though by the sounds of it mate.

Rebuild it better than before? or get something to replace it?

Nasty

Must have been a soil your pants moment! Luckily everyone okay though

What's your plans with the car?

[Vulture Mode on] I need a dead 4 x 4 for a project / spares for my track car - would help you find a new home for the salvage! Not sure if you can buy the car back off your insurance company? [/vulture mode off]

Now just make sure you come back bigger and better -and if you're going 2wd maybe think about someit better than Wanli Armco finders!

LOL

Its ironic how sometimes the more lairy cars last longer cause you actually treat them with a bit a of respect, too easy to take things for granted in a 4wd!

Definately see where you are coming form with that logic.
