Tbh, i don't know how i managed to do what i did, all i know is i came off a roundabout not very much in control, fish tailed, at some point 180'd, and slid into the central reservation. No one was hurt, there was no other traffic about, I am a complete idiot, please feel free, hell, please do, call me all the names under the sun. The recovery guy said it was ice, i say it was my inexperience and my speed, that whilst wasn't fast, was still obviously in hindsight, to fast for the conditions.

Is it totaled, should I claim, how much is this guna cost me? I am very upset, but am not sad, in fact, all jokes my mates have made iv found funny and im quite happy in other ways that it wasn't worse.

Ouch :o

RWD in this weather needs care. Credit to you for being honest.

Looks like most of the damage is at the top, did the wheels take a whack? That would be my biggest concern, chassis and suspension damage is worse than cosmetics.
I have no idea, I think it did, but the car drove fine until I thought driving it was a stupid idea, so pulled over to a safe spot, and called the RAC, all thought thinking back there was no curb (which your post has just made me realised, realising that it might just be cosmetic damadge, good news, thanks for the reply!), so maybe the wheels will be ok, fingers crossed!
 
That is some extensive damage to the unibody. I am willing to bet it gets totaled since that rear quarter panel has to be cut off and a new one has to be welded in its place. There may be frame damage under the sheet metal as well.
Is this guy right? :(
