gutted mate thats tidy especially on the MG rims, theres been a month of it, at least now you can get the other car you were thinking of. Just dont accept the first offer they make you lol.

 

[corsa_evn]

bad news is ive got a hunch the guy who hit me isent insured as he wanted me to go to his mates garage to get it fixed, "and i don't think there will put a new quater on it just fill it with filler" and im only third party fire & twoc soo right now im classing it as a total loss,

 

[astranaut]

You should fill him with filler!, sounds dodgy, its ****s like that that put insurance an everythin up for the rest of us.

 

[TheDeadDodo]

man thats **** news lovely looking car, glad you and your misses are alright though and prey that he did have insurance.

 

[fleck]

harsh dude, glad u both alright though!

 

[corsa_evn]

just been out and took a few pic's, photos don't show the dent's up too well or the damage to the bottom arm / steering / hub which i need to have a look at,

on the scale off been pi$$ed off im right up there and a bit beyond,

 

[micky]

have you informed the police and did a search to see if that veccy is insured?

 

[corsa_evn]

i informed the police last night got a crime number need to pop down local nick with insurance documents, after which going to phone my insurance company up quinn direct, thats going to be fun as ive never clamed before and i really cannont afford my access this month as im brassic alredy ffs,

 

[micky]

General procedure is.
Tell insurance
They send a form out with a what happened guide
If its not your fault they give you a curtosy car.
Insurance will send someone to inspect car
Then you recieve a price for car.
You agree or you dont agree to it.
Simples

Only draw back if third party not insured its a right pain to sort out.

Hows that whiplash and loss of earnings claim doing?

 

[LAW84]

been a week for it mine looks like urs just other side mine got decleared total loss last night and they offered me £350 and car cat c, they seem to think 350 can replace a gsi! hope u get on ok

 

[Kev_mk3]

really gutted for you as its a nice car

 

[dark-ryder]

really sorry for you mate, hope you get a decent payout, you gonna try and fix it or break it?

 

[Chris Astra]

Don't get too wound up about whether the other guy has insurance or not yet. Its the job of your insurance company to sort that out.
Plus if it was me that hit you, I know I could get it repaired properly for not a lot of money and would prefer that too loosing my NCB.

Oh and turn down the first offer from the insurance company, it'll be crap lol.

 

[rickisgrate]

unlucky dude

 

[Andy_Mk3]

glad you're ok though matey

the fact is im only third party fire and theft soo im kind off relying on his insurance company, its a aqward one basicly his missues is insured on it but he's not on her policy but im hopeing he's fully comp

 

[allanm114]

sorry to hear bout car m8y, its a sweet lookin car. as long as you and misses ok, hope insurance sort you out bud, chin up

 

[djwilde69]

mate thats well bad, you should fix it!!! stor it till you have funds to do so
glad you and ya lass are ok tho

 

[astra-paul]

gutted mate car was sweet glad u an misses are ok but with regards to insurance if his misses is insured on it and he aint then basically he "borrowed" it then its theft unless she says she let him without insurance which means her insurance will cover ur repairs ect i had this years ago and i finally got it sorted but took ages and dont accept first offer i had total loss in my clio the 1st offer was £250 turned it down and then they offered me £1000 so hold out for the better money
