[wavy]

well after getting my willy back from the body shop after having a rear arch fitted i was well happy with the car

Shvt!!!

Really sorry to hear mate, you must be gutted :cry: :shock:

[white16valver]

Bugger :(

If your avatar is anything to go by, 13 really is unlucky for some!

Hope you can get it sorted :)

And, I'm not preaching, merely suggesting, spend an extra 80-odd quid and get yourself enrolled into the local Institute of Advanced Motorists group so you can hopefully avoid any future slip ups! :)

Happens to the best of us though :(

[wavy]

i know what you mean about getting advanced driving course but in 20 years of driving this year is the 1st time iv ever been involved in any sort of accident or claim :(

the good news is iv just sourced all the parts i need to get it repaired :) thanks stan :)

all i gotta do now is go pick them up and get cracking on the repairs :( then spray shop

[Coops]

sorry to hear this mate

hope u get it all sorted for the summer

long story cut short
at a small round about
an artic truck decided to come on the wrong side of the road around a bollard
the bloke in a seat brava in front of me locked up and skidded into the kerb which stopped him dead and i hit him up the arse
we had just set off so was only low speeds

the police was called but because the truck didnt make contact with the seat he wasnt actually involved in an accident and was aparently given a verbal warning but for going round the bollard on the wrong side of the road
it was for leaving the scene
his excuse for going on wrong side of the road was to avoid causing an accident for the upcoming tight left corner he had to do ???

end of the day its down to me for hittin him up the arse
i was just glad him and his child was fine
even the bloke was gutted about my car lol said it looked mint

[northy]

gutted mate - if u need a hand let me know

is it a cat d or a c now ?

[wavy]

oh my god NOOOOO

2 days ago i agreed to take a cash settlement and keep the car with no marks against it
its called payment in lou ?? (spelling?)

they have just rang and said they have made a mistake and can no longer allow this to happen ? :(
so **** know s whats gonna happen now ?
