Blimey mate, looks like you were very lucky to walk away from that.
Good luck with the payout.
BTW, I found this on the Japfest website if you have'nt seen it before: http://www.japfest.com/tracktime.html

Paul and desmondo,
In the verge was a storm drain, just under the grass was a 8"x 3" x 5ft concrete Lintle over the brickwork, which I wiped out and it ended up in the ditch water. It got caught under car making the dents into horrible scratches when the tractor was trying to pulling it out. I nearly
when I heard the sound.
My mate and the Farmer struggle to lift it back onto brickwork.
But we had to get it out or it could have been in 6ft of water in the night.

could have got it a bit further with a co driver hanging out the window job like The Rally this weekend. LOLTony
Ps trying to be careful not to get blamed, or deducted money for getting out the Culvert and getting it to main road. The Vultures or the water would have finnished it of by morning

Sorry to hear about your Bad luck mate. I can't see them not writing it off, if the roof was'nt caved in then maybe it would be repairable. It's best that they do, as the re-sale value after two accidents would put lot off people off. At least you can haggle a good payout from the insurance company and get yourself a new one.
