What a shame :cry: Glad you're OK though Pete. I would have thought it would be worth buying the salvage to part out?

A lesson to us all I think. There were 2 modern cars in a ditch on the way to work the other morning. Same patch of ice, 2 different incidents.

I think from what I remember (i'm with RH for ref), that I can have the salvage on mine at no additional cost/fee. So I should get the full payout and the metal back.........Of course the proof would be In the pudding so to speak!!

Something I hope I never had to test..........Sad to see the Challenger in its current state. Hope you can a good outcome so you can get another Pete! :thumbright:

All the saveable parts will be worth a surprising amount of money on the used market.

That should be a cat B, cat A means it should be crushed. Note the word "should" not "must".

All very sad, but Ash is absolutely right, and the main thing is that you are Ok.

Neither could be returned to the road though I believe.

If it ends up on Copart I am registered there if you wanted to get it back.
