A driver was injured when his car ploughed into three vehicles at an East Sussex garage.
The Ford Fiesta left the road and crashed through hedgerow, a lamppost, a security barrier and into three vehicles at a garage in Flimwell, near Robertsbridge.
He was cut from the wreckage and taken to Kent and Sussex Hospital with suspected neck injuries.
It happened early today as the driver was en route from Hawkhurst to Flimwell on the A268.
Mark Lilly, owner of Sunnybank Garage in Hawkhurst Road, said: "I know my cars inside and out but when I looked at the Fiesta it took me a while to work out what it was.
"It was almost unrecognisable. He is extremely lucky to be alive."
The man has not been named by Sussex Police, who operate data protection guidelines.
