Not sure yet. All I know is there was a bang and now the back left of the car is sat on its arse. I'll know more once recovery has got me home and I can jack it up and have a look. Car has done 170k. I got it at 160k without a Towbar so I know it's not towed before, but the boot is clearly "well used". I've done a lot of towing myself which won't help, but the car was only £300 with full test so I'm not complaining
Not sure what use it is but.....

I'm not taking a picture of the other side, but that's about half normal ride height
