Busted half shaft or CV joint

I expect he would have known all about it had the prop let go

Something bust in the rear drive.

As mentioned use the diff lock and I bet you get drive and a working handbrake. Although I would be looking to remove shafts etc once proven 2014 - current ..... 2003 defender td5 90 (my car)
2009 - current .... 2005 zx10r
