I'm fine, put the car up for sale last week & this is what happens!!

 

[Mr Tiler]

[TJ Smiler]

When you say wrote off, does that mean a total write off or just very expensive to repair... only asking mate cos if you had it sold for 5k maybe it would be worth spending a bit on getting it back into shape and then selling it again at a lower price? might cut your losses slightly!!

Gutted for you pal, wrote my car off two years ago and it still bugs me

Probably 5k plus of damage & the motors only worth 5k so they will prob rite it off on a cat D.
I'm not that bothered as it hopefully won't cost me anything, just a bit gutted as I've had it for 7 years..

Costs you on renewal though. Unfair as it is a non-fault claim always pumps up your premiums.

15yr protected no claims, so it shouldn't affect my premium..
It's a non fault accident on my part so it shouldn't budge my insurance..

 

[TJ Smiler]

5k of damage!!! That is crap mate, best wishes to ya.

It shouldn't but it does. Why else do you think they ask if you've had any claims - "non-fault or otherwise"?
It's slight but it's there and it's 100% unfair.

 

[Diggy]

But Stef wont be making a claim against her insurance so it should be fine.

PS: Don't get involved with a 'credit hire company' for temporary hire car , it's a nightmare.

Google it for details.

Been there got the T-shirt.

Still fighting an insurance claim from last year when a young boy wiped me out in our alfa..
They ask for claims but we don't have any so they have to pay out..
