My saxo is currently stuck in france approx 2miles from the ferry port

the drivers side drive shaft snapped

I went over the other week to try and fix it but the new driveshaft broke

the guy who was helping me, his passport has expired and can no longer travel. i am no mechanic and left the car with the wishbone ball joint undone and am not sure i will be capable of putting it back in

however I have full uk aa cover

so if i could get it to dover port i would be able to get home no problem

any ideas?
