Any idea how to post pictures of the damage, btw??

Just a thought, for both of you guys, had you recently had new tyres fitted or any work where the car was lifted off the ground??
I wouldn't ever think hand brake turns or any other type of harsh driving would break it, if you had seen some of the testing at Boxberg, MIRA or Bruntingthorpe you would understand what vehicles are subjected to prior to being released!
