hi there, there are a few possiblities here for your problem. listing from font of car to rear the possibilities are.
1. your clutch plate has lost its friction material.
2. your gearbox has failed.
3. your prop shaft has failed.
4. one or both drive shafts have failed.
5 your differential has failed.
however the most likely fault is the clutch plate friction materialhas been lost.
hope this helps. cheers. dave.
