Bad Day / sad day / lucky us

Ok so my daughter and I were driving back from shopping 2 days ago when we got stuck in the middle of a 5 car stack.





The white ute hit the Patrol and then they both hit us.  We got rammed straight into the back of a Triton trayback which surprisingly didn't look too bad, the guy was able to drive away after all the commotion was over.  His car just touched the Audi in front, no damage.

The CFA inspecting the Rok for safety issues

The rear held up well considering it had the full force of a Ranger 2x4 and a Patrol 4x4 up it's butt!
Yellow tape to warn people the airbags haven't deployed.

 A bit of a close up, yep my daughter was driving and we were both ok, a few sore bones and bruises so we were lucky.
Under the bonnet, looks pretty bad, not sure if she's fixable.

So in a couple of days i'll find out whether she gets fixed or goes to the auctions.

It's all a bit sad, I really liked this car and at 80,000 km, I had no intentions of getting rid of it.
