first reaction was to get my GF and my cousin out of the car coz I could hear a hissing sound like it was coming from a tyre or something, so we got out and a car drove past and asked if we were OK? soon after a couple that live up on a hill in front of the ditch we ended up on came out and gave us some blankets and asked how did it all happen? when I told the guy that I felt as if the tyre had blown, he said that the same thing had happen to him earlier that day on his 4WD! then the cops main conccern was if I had been drinking (which I wasn't) and soon after they called a tow truck to get the car out and to get it home, 1hr went past and my girl was feeling a bit dizzy and unwell so they ended also calling up an ambulance to check her out.
when that was happening the tow truck rocked up and pulled my car out, I was expecting it to be a full on later to the front sort of hit, but the only damage was done to the front left guard and the front bar was pushed back a bit, luky I was only going 60km/h if I was going any faster I rekon it would have been worse and I'm also luky not to hit another car or a tree or even a pole, the one thing that one of the cops said to me was: "what a shame its such a nice car, but looks like she held up very fine, also you're luky its lowered on its ass coz if it werent for that you would of had more chances of flipping it over"
we ended up geting home later that night at about 3am with the car on the tow truck and shaken but thanking God that it could have been worse!
