ouch... sorry to hear that .
If it makes you feel any better, I did the exact same thing a few years back coming off a roundabout in the wet, had to replace the front quarter, door and rear quarter on the cap. |

Sorry to see this! Bruised elbow is pretty good considering every time I drivr mind I'm worried about being crushed by a truck! Potentially not too bad with s few new body panels depending structural damage? |

Sad to see, but as has been said, the fact you walked away is the important thing |

wow looks a lot of damage but if its only panels and the car is a solid one is it not better to buy secondhand panels and repair it im sure you could get that lot for less than £500
there is no doubt that any insurance co will write it off if you claim
main thing is you walked away to tell the tale |
