Grande Punto My grande punto 1.4 t-jet (help needed)

Introduction

Hi all, pretty new to this forums I've used a few guides which have been very helpful!! Had my car for just over a week now and i love it, heres a few pics of it..ImageUploadedByFIAT Forum1393169617.891998.jpgImageUploadedByFIAT Forum1393169630.473948.jpgImageUploadedByFIAT Forum1393169661.724714.jpg

And now the bad news :( I've not thrashed it once in the week I've had it and i was pulling out of a junction earlier at around 10mph and bang the drive shaft snapped and oil/grease has gone everywhere, got it picked up and taken home by my breakdown cover, but i tried to physically roll the car back a few metres as it was blocking my drive, and something was stopping it from rolling back, i had to get the man from the recovery place to drop his ramp down off the lorry and push my car back, and when i turn the car on the engine sounds very weird...? could this be more than just a snapped driveshaft??? Sorry its so long I'm new to the car world so I'm just learning the ropes, I've described what i can see and feel as well as i can, if anyone could help me out at all that would be much appreciated,
Thanks,
Luke.
I got it from a dealer, and i had coilovers fitted yesterday and today the driveshaft snapped, says it all really doesn't it haha, i have warranty on it but the coilovers will void that wont they?
