So insurance is finally sorted and payout received.
I was driving home from work, one minute everything was fine, the next I was on my side wraped round a tree covered on blood.
Managed to cut my seatbelt off and fell from the drivers side to where the passengers side was. Then realised quite how serious it was, lay down and waited for help.
Very luckily was found by a minibus of nurses coming back from cricket. Who where all amazing, kept me warm and rang my fiancée.
Paramedics arrived and the firebrigade who where all incredible and so kind.
Got to the hospital with a broken neck, nose and a few cuts and scrapes. Neck was a stable fracture and only required a 24hour neck brace for 3 weeks, nose was fixed by a plastic surgeon who happened to be in A&E. No lasting injuries bar a small scar on my nose, which is amazing.

You can see the roll cage intact just around my seat.
The fire brigade, paramedics and doctors all said the car saved my life, the roll cage, bucket seats prevented further injury.
How im alive with minor injuries is a miracle but im here!
Im devastated at the loss of the 110, feels a lot like loosing a friend but all the work I put it in, all the heavy duty parts all contributed to saving me. Cant say I would have walked away from a similar crash in a standard Defender.
Its a awful that 7 years of work has come to such an abrupt and painful end but Im moving forward got a D2 (as you can imagine Def insurance is rather high!
)
Thank you to everyone that helped with advice and motivation over the years, much appreciated.
