Is that pole in the ground and the car has hit it? or has the pole hit the car with a bit of force?

Either way... not cool

Can't be mate, panel has folded downwards, also lots of debris on the floor away from the car, can't explain the flat tyre and shattered alloys wheel though!

Yes Rad, i'd be proper pissed!

I reckon the wheel took most of the impact then the rear quarter, driver spun the car backwards/side rear quarter into it then continued to rotate the car around spinning on the post. hence looking like it drove in front ward.

Unlikely to be honest. Some on here will know of Paul Bailey (via Evo mag) and he had a slight off a while back that cost him IIRC about 7-9K. But that was a lot of the front sections.

This (Above) may be somewhere near the Ł30-40K mark, (rough estimate assuming he hasnt buggered the engine in the process) but they car won't be written off because of it IMO Probably wouldnt be even if it costs Ł80K.
