Attended a first aid course yesterday for regular travelers into remote areas. This one is done by a crowd called Outdoormedical who uses Land Rovers for their field ambulances.
Got hold of this disturbing photo showing what a D3 SHOULD NOT LOOK LIKE

Do you know the circumstances of the crash? Looks like it fell off a cliff. I've seen the odd rolled D3 for sale (autotrader & Ebay) but nothing anywhere like this wreck.

Yeah, we get slap-dash parking in the UK, too
2006 D3 finally swapped for a 2016 D4 Graphite in Graphite grey. No mods

I wonder what the driver remembers.
Was he buckled up?
I am always concerned about an exit through the roof, that has happened on a Disco2.
Andrew, perhaps the FR roof rack may contain the shredding of the roof?
