That is seriously bad luck mate!!

Is it fixable and did the other car stop or bugger off?

Main thing is you're ok but i'd be well pissed off!

Shame about the car, but where there's blame, there's a claim

I understand what you are saying Ginge mate but to be fair you should be traveling in a fashion that allows you to stop for such situations. It was quite fortunate it was a car and not a tractor/horse/pedestrian. Should never accelerate where you can't see on the road.

My mate used to use his to tow his speedboat and I was considering using mine to tow my kart trailer because you can't fit a towbar to a focus ST. I decided against it because it isn't right

Thats why most, if not all modern cars carry warning triangles.

With two of you tho Id have pushed the car to a safe stretch of road, but hindsights a wonderful thing.

Car looks like a nice late clean car, Could be repairable if its only the boot and rear rails which are twisted.
