Sadly I don’t Alistair and in this case it would not have been able to get the moment of impact in shot even if it had been a rearward facing unit, however, I will be investing in one as it would have confirmed and proven that the op was indeed indicating for a right turn prior to going onto the roundabout, explaining my course of action in going around him on the near side lane.
If I’m honest, and if we have to go through the insurance companies I’m really worried that they will right off my car due to its age. I know it’s repairable but I don’t expect it to be cheap. The op may not be in a position to pay for it and be forced to use the insurance which will open up a whole new can of worms.

From the pictures you provided of the damaged area, unless there is something sinister lurking underneath I would say that it is far from being a write-off situation. I seem to have in the back of my head that the repair has to be 60% of the cars value to qualify for writing off ?. That would have to be a very expensive repair FFS.
