Not mine before I start, my dads. Happened tonight on the m25 I think. Nissan Qashqai into the back of him at 70mph.
1 of only 16 cabs in the UK, believed to be the only black alpina cab with black alpina dynamic alloys in the UK. Green flag reckon its a write off

Gutted. Though depends on how bad the boot floorpan is I would say with the e9X's. He looks lucky though not much damage forma rear end shunt, did he hit anyone or anything?

Possibly will see tomorrow I suppose. Nah he was quite lucky tbf, front corner scraped the central reservation cause the Qashqai hit him at an angle as he tried to swerve.

He cant open the boot and judging by this picture, I wouldnt be surprised if the roof mechanism took a battering.

It's repairable. Boot floors on those are plastic iirc.
Looks like its gone down the side of the chassis leg.
As Tom said though if its written off he wants a decent pay out with it been so rare!
