hi all, ive just had a "slight" bump on leasowe road, both front wings are f**ked and bumper and headlights! Anyone any idea how much this will cost for a 2001 pug 106. cheers. My insurance company is gona shove a 10" up my arse!!!!!

Be prepared, I'd say about a grand. Cost me £200 to get one wing done on the Astra.

i had a smash last year and had to repair my bumper,left front wing,bonnet,slam panel,lights&grill only cost me £40 quid and didn't get me insurance involed just fixed it meself <img border="0" alt="[cwhelp]" title="" src="graemlins/cwemotions041.gif" />

Was there an abandonned golf down the road?

hey mate, if you dont get the insurance company involved, which is looking unlikely, try and get the parts yourself and have it repaired on the sly <img border="0" alt="[cwhelp]" title="" src="graemlins/cwemotions041.gif" />

So we are assuming that is wasnt the other drivers fault then?

Looks like its a search around the scrap yards?

But if they only need knocking out then try

Hope this helps ?

i was goin down leasowe road, and the car in front of me in the outside lane had stopped for no particular reason at all and i went up his arse. BUT i hit a royal mail van aswel so they are obviously gona claim off my insurance with them being a company. what happens next? what do i do e.t.c. Im fully comp so i should get a courtesy car but will this take ages for me to get because im lost without me car already!

Just been on the blower to the insurance company and my car is gettin taken to the 'car hospital' tomoro and i should have a courtesy car within 1 day from tomoro. Thats the good news. now the bad news, my excess is a whopping £500!!! and itll rocket next year!!! GREAT!!! no mods for me for a while!!!

What a bummer matey

Hope it all gets sorted soon...

:go: :go:

The car hospital spoke to me today and have written me car off! im well gutted! nearly cryin. how long will it take for my insurance money to come through? any idea's? What car should i get with about £2,500 to £3000???

Insurance : Might work out quicker ?
As there may be no dispute now...

Which car to get, Ive no idea ?

Good luck and try and cheer up mate...

Well gutted for you mate, will your insurance re-imburse you for the value you insured your car at? How much did you value it at?


As for your next car, you said you like to be different? get yourself one of these:



Cost the owner less than £2000 to buy and get looking like this. Or you could go a step further and get yourself one of these:





You'll get over it matey, take your time

can't you buy your car back and repair it yourself? <img border="0" alt="[cwhelp]" title="" src="graemlins/cwemotions041.gif" />

no i dont really want to do that tony, id rather just get it out of my system and by meself a new one. And jimbo, sorry mate i dont want to be that different! I should be getting a courtesy car untilthe insurance paysout so thats good. Apparently they are going to give me a ring and 'negotiate' the payout with me! And if anyone thinks they will never crash then think again,i thought it and i was wrong, now im paying the consequences!

i had two in the space of six months hope you get yourself sorted soon gary mate, in the meantime take it easy fella

Crashings ****, I has a minor altocation with a wall towards the end of last year and I still aint been able to afford to get it fixed as I really dont wanna go through the insurance, is a pain in the arse driving round with a dented door, wing and bonnet though cos it looks ****e

Prepare yourself for the insurance company offer for your car, Obtain adverts from the local papers, freeway, auto-trader ect to proove what your car is worth. They will offer you less than it is worth so you need evedence that it is worth more than they offer you. Shopping through car forecourt adverts is ushually the best coz they tend to be over-priced. Dont accept the first offer. Haggle, Then Haggle again, Then haggle again, Then haggle a little more. Have your reasons why you think you car is worth more than they are offering you ready to throw back at them. These guy's are trained negotionators, they recieve commission for pay-out's so be on ya guard. Good look anyways.

Happy car hunting my matey !

its ok scooby, i bought my car for £3600 and they valued it at £4200 and i recieved (after excess) £3700 so i am now the proud owner of a 1.4 quicksilver!!1

Well i guess your simply one of those people whom fall in a bucket of pooo and come up smelling of roses...... <img border="0" alt="[joking]" title="" src="graemlins/cwemotions046.gif" />

Its good to hear a happy ending to a sad story though.
