Bit of an update, insurance assessor been down to value the vehicle and assess the damage, it's classified as a Cat D and he said it will be back on the road in a couple of months,
Not back to me tho as the payments I have made and the value of the vehicle clears the finance,
So a new shape Crafter with 143Bhp is on route and VW paying £1k deposit  :smiley:

The old Crafter only had 103Bhp and push bikes use to leave it standing at the lights  :grin:
New Model has a smaller 2ltr engine, more powerful and 30% better on juice, result  :smiley:
So all in all everything has turned out ok.

I wondered how it ended up in a field nowhere near a road. Glad there's a positive to pull from it all.

With regards to the driver awareness course...I'm sure she was quite aware she was tired and driving so that's not going to help.

Maybe murders will just get a telling off if they own up soon?! I got 6 points just for speeding a few years ago and a fine, even though I was in full control.
