It's a total write off, but nobody is injured except me with a stiff neck. It was a vacant shop fortunately. I was changing the cd in the car and looked up to see a car stopped from nowhere, locked up, jumped the car up the curb and into a shop-front. I'm now getting thoroughly pissed and drowning my sorrows. $\:\($ Photos to follow when I upload my phone.
