[landy]

been out in car today, stopped at some lights went to set off and the wind has blown down a metal security fence, its hit my car and bent all the drivers side wing in,

were do i stand about claiming on insurance?

can i claim off the companys insurance?

dad says go report it to the police is this worth it?

[Viper]

dont think you can claim mate, act of god isnt it. unfortunately.

you got any pics of the damage?

[vtrdonk]

think you can claim of companys insurance because there ment to be stood in blocks and clamped together

[landy]

no aint got no pics yet im still fucked off, as a kid was coming to buy my car this saturday

[Mitchell]

think you can claim of companys insurance because there ment to be stood in blocks and clamped together

but thats not the companys fault, unless they fitted it themselves.. but then they will just say it was fitted correctly.

u cant claim against mother nature.

[landy]

just spoke to police and they have had 2 reports today about it, and they said its council's problem

[Amiee]

You wont get money out of the council.. tbh best of claiming on your insurance or just pay up yoursel.

[landy]

its ment to be selling on saturday.

the guy who is buying it is a car sprayer do i, tell him the damage and drop the price, or dont sell it and fix it then sell it again,

but if i did sell to him now how much would you reckon i should knock off? im sellin it to him for £2800

[Amiee]

Id tell the guy whos buying it.. see what he wants to do.

[Morgan_VTR]

pics of damage so we can guess the price of damage.

sorry to hear mate, thats life, happens to all of us.

[Luke]

Knock him something off.

You have been trying to sell it for a while now, how long before someone is interested again? Not been funny, just been truthful bud. I'd sell it for £200 - £300 less.

[landy]

i keep changing my mind so only been up for a month at most,

by the looks off it, it will need a new wing and the bit that goes under the light

[potatopete]

Dont waste time tying to get anything off the council. Just dont bother.

Speak to the buyer, tell him exactly what happened, ask him if he still wants and see if the 2 of you can agree a slightly reduced price.

Try offering him £150 - £200 reduction and see what his response is.

Gutted for you....good luck with getting something sorted.

[Emma_ZS]

Oh crap, that looks quite bad actually! :n:

Hope you get it sorted soon :)

[Mark51]

doubt he'd be able to fix that. might be better telling him whats happened and soucing a new wing for him to fit or fit and spray

[landy]

well ive told him so ill let him do it

[adamsax]

This happened too my Westie mate and there's naff all you can do.

You've been honest with the guy tbf. If you say he works in bodywork then he'll be able too get it sorted for f**k all.

What you getting next btw?

[Maxwell]

take it that pic is mirrored!!

because in your first post you said it was your drivers side, though the pic looks like your passenger.


anyways............not good like. can you not claim the damages off the roads service?

[maynard]

what did the guy say when you told him?

[landy]

hes gonna get a price and let me no,

gettin a bike as its cheaper as ive just bought a house

[Grand_Champ]

Dont say it was the wind, just say some retard must of fitted it wrongly and it was a danger to the public. Cant see why you cant claim as it is someones negligence....assuming you dont say it was the wind. Where theres a blame theres a claim :homme:

[Viper]

it isnt negligence though

it was the wind, which is an act of god

[Grand_Champ]

it isnt negligence though

it was the wind, which is an act of god

Guess you cant read
