If he needs to get some money back from it he can wreck it and sell parts on here FTG salvage just wrecked a fairmont wagon so you can look on their add and see who wanted what and what they went for - just an idea Also if the power window switches still have all the white diagrams on them I will bags that part.

Where the chips a factor, lol.
Good to see your brothers OK, though. The roof seem to hold together pretty well and the front window did its job very well. It inspires confidance in the E-series people out there, i wouldnt like to have done that in an old VK Commodore or some korean shozbox like a Hyundai Lantra.

Yet more proof that E-series are built tough. Good that nobody was hurt.

Well think about it. If it hasn't rained for a while, which i assume it hadn't, the water on the road brings any oil, petrol, diesel that has been spilt on the road. That makes the road slippery and dangerous. That mixed with hitting the curb as you would since it is a roundabout and a lack of experience makes this sort of thing happen. Now before you reply please think first as you hurt my brain with your stupidity and simplicity.
