He just rang me and asked to keep y'all informed..

Someone has just written his car off :(

He didnt give much info on what happend, but he is now waiting for police to turn up and im sure he will tell you the full story tomorro!! From what he said he is now stuck in the middle of a dodgey area waiting for feds...

Main thing is he is alright though and isnt hurt :y:

drive round if its close and keep him company. failing that tell him to wear a bandana and pretend to rummage around the car, people will think hes a thief, call the feds and they will get round in half the time.

6th November 2008, 18:40
He is some 40 miles away, but he has rang them twice, and he hasnt text back so maybe they finally turned up

poor sod, hopefully the tcut can sort it.

And hopefully the other guy is insured as in alot of dodgy areas we all know the problems with un insured drivers sadly.

Ok my bro works for an insurance company got a mate to check the reg. The CAR was insured but the driver wouldn't give me any details after waiting around for a bit he just done one.

at least he got reg, can screw the cunt over for sodding off.

Thing is ive got a feeling the guy may not own the car or doesnt have a license.

Im seriously pissed off at:
The Police
My Insurance
The fucking dickhead that caused it.

UPLOADING PICS AS WE SPEAK :y:

Did police turn up??

Rang police at 6:05pm to report RTA etc. rang inurance blah blah blah... Police FINALLY turned up at about 8ish and that was only because a Community Support office was riding by and stopped to check everything was ok. Then he radio'd though to get some sort of organisation.

Lost ALOT of respect for the police tonight.

PPPEEEEEEEEEEJJJJJ!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111

hope your ok

Im alright just seriously pissed off.

I should've just drove straight into the guy.

6th November 2008, 21:47
I bet you're hating life right now. Least your okay bud, sounds like a bit of a knob jockey for pissing off and not leaving you any details.

Edit: Police fail at life.

What happened to make him/you crash?

Mr_X
6th November 2008, 21:50
i kinda know the feeling, my old car got stolen, then the numpty crashed, then before i know it my insurance company have told me its my fault.

they couldn't have been less helpful if they tried.

Amiee
6th November 2008, 21:50
Yeh thats pretty shit took the piss!!! There when your sat in damn traffic and answer your phone, pow 60£s please.. but not when you actually need them :n:

Peej; I'll give you £7.50 and a mars bar for your cams. Deal?

Ryan
6th November 2008, 21:51
if the driver wasnt the nsured driver when the named driver gets a claim against him i doubt he will want to cover it for them

Peejous
6th November 2008, 21:53
What happened to make him/you crash?

I was going up the road and he wanted to turn down into a side road.

He just pulled out in front of me.

I slammed on the brakes and was skidding towards him so went to steer round to avoid twating into the front.

Missed his car (yay) twated the kerb.

Looking back at it now I should've drove the car straight into him and sent him and his kids and his wife through the fuckin windscreen and into my air filter!

Ryan
6th November 2008, 21:54
ah so no bodywork damage, just prob.
steering rack, wheel, strut, driveshaft and wishbone, poss arb, although clio potentially the whole lower engine assembly to.

Much damage to your monster?

Hitting the kerb pushed the wheel into the bottom of the arch where it joins the skirt. Breaking it.

Also need a new wheel. Massive chunk missing.

Think is ill prob need a new strut... but I have coil overs fitted

Now what happens?

Ryan
6th November 2008, 22:00
your bro being in insurance will be the best to know how to sort it.

My best advice is get a written statment into insurance asap, exaplaing what happened, time, when police arrived, driver refusing to give details etc.....

leeroybrown
6th November 2008, 22:00
May have fecked the coil over as well, probs need a new wheel strut, drive shaft, drop links, bottom arms.

Also wanna check it hasnt move the strut top its self

Couldn't really see much under bonnet 'cos of the light.

Hoping it hasn't gone as far as that.

Would the strut brace help with that?

leeroybrown
6th November 2008, 22:03
Depends Mr Juice sometimes it doesnt move..somtimes it can make it worse and push the strut top out....have a look in the light for any creases etc... by the sounds of it the strut and wheels has taken most of it

JC-Furio
6th November 2008, 22:04
Any witnesses as well? Because if it comes down to it and the other guys a complete tosser, he has a family of people to back him up about it. That's presuming the worst. :n:

If not, skidmarks on the road? You take pics while you were there or anything?

Peejous
6th November 2008, 22:08
Yeah got a good few pics uploading them now for you.

Will go back tomorrow and get picks in the day.

Now im not normally racist (mods please remove etc if you think this would offend people)

But...

This was in a predominately "coloured" area, no sooner than 5 minutes had passed this guy had other cars who I KNOW could not have seen the crash turn up and chatting to him etc.

Im there on my own been surrounded by about 5 "coloured" people all saying "can you not drive?" "have you passed your test?" etc.

This is when police were called.

I know for certain he's going to have some bull shit excuse.

Cal
6th November 2008, 22:10
He cut your path/right of way... his fault.

Also;

Peej, racist...

Yeah I know looking back I should've but thought i'd rather avoid a head on.
Instinct I guess.

Paul
6th November 2008, 22:22
Exact same happened to me about a year ago.

Some old guy pulled out, i thought "fuck hitting a merc" and swerved up the pavement and hit a fence/concretewall.

The guy tried driving off, luckily my brother was behind me and chased after him, caught up and told him to go back. He did. He came back and cops were called, loads of witnesses etc and i managed to get paid out. Took a solicitor and ALOT of paper work.

Hope it all works out for you mate, chin up.

Peejous
6th November 2008, 22:24

i was thinking ripped the shaft out tbh ryan.

because of the steering angle more than anything the force would have yanked it out like, possibly wrong though.

i think there more chance of finding gold in a river tbh

a pair possibly yea, tbh though dude it would be better to replace both because of spring and damper wear, if you replaced one it would be perfect and one would be worn and therefore where faster.

yanking it out or at an angle can still crack the box though, always a risk sadly.

Anyone know of a 172 gearbox for sale?

I seriously hope its not that bad.

Karl

its not a write off

should be fixed

seen worse being fixed

shouldnt be gearbox, it should be ok hopefully shame though:(

Karl
6th November 2008, 23:30
Cat D imo if box, shaft, wheel is damaged.

ryanmt
6th November 2008, 23:32
i wouldnt be worried about gearbox damage, ide put money on that being ok. My main concern would be with the body of the car.. its bent the wishbone but has it bent anything else. Does the bonnet line up ok with the wings, wings with the doors. How about the steering rack, has the force done any damage?

First thing ide do is fit a wishbone and trackrod end. That driveshaft might be ok it might have just ripped the boot, they do come apart like that anyway so its not the end of the world so ide stick it back together just temp and see if everthing lines up ok. Once your at that stage work out if you need new struts etc. Fit a new boot onto the shaft or buy a new one and refill the box with oil etc.

Peejous
6th November 2008, 23:33
Surely thats what my insurance are for though? lol

Cheers for the info.

Surely thats what my insurance are for though? lol

Cheers for the info.

EDIT: Will go take pics in the day tomorrow.

Yeah they know how to muck you about.
Took my insurance a week before they got me a car, then got a call from the other person's insurance asking if I was injured and if anybody else in the car was injured :fcuk:.

I told them and my insurance that I was the only person in the car at the time and that I wasn't hurt.

Kept sending me forms to fill in and return to them had an Iccident claim email (Spam), then finally got the cheque from the other person's insurance company (after being told my car was a write off) for £1200, £200 more than I paid for the car.

sorry to hear this peej, at least you've been cheering yourself up with a bit of xbox. I take it you were somewhere in Brum when this happened as you live there? Anywhere in particular? (so I can avoid the place really ;) )

Hope everything gets sorted alright, considerring the value of your clio it won't technically be a write off, but if worst comes to worst defo over a grand of damages... *judging renault sport prices as new*

Glad you are alright though, look forward to your "A terrorist got on my bus today and had juggernaught!!!!" threads :y:

Ouch

Are your mods covered on the insurance, not just declaired, but covered to? If not it could be a pain. May end up going back to standard through the insurance.

In terms of claiming off the other guy, as you didn't hit him it's unlikely. Worth trying, but I think it'll be a nightmare to do. Witness will be a good idea and really your only chance.

Good luck with it!

The only damage "mod" wise is probably going to be to the coilovers. Wheels are standard everything else thats damaged is standard.

I know it's going to be hard claiming, thats why looking back I should've just hit the guy head on.

CampDavid
7th November 2008, 09:18
Sadly you're probably right.

Best bet is going to be to pay your excess, get it fixed and get your insurers to claim it back. All relies on the witness.

I know it's going to be hard claiming, thats why looking back I should've just hit the guy head on.

Other half had a similar accident, some guy pulled out in front of him he was doing about 50-60 so would of been a bad accident if he hit him but he managed to avoid him but ended up down a grass bank. He won him claim in the end but it was a fight as the guy didnt even stop and denied even being there. He was supposed to loose his licence but he gave it up due to medical grounds before this could happen. Hope you have a witness will help a great deal. Hope it can be repaired and sorry for the long read.

Peejous
7th November 2008, 09:22
All relies on the witness.

Thing is, no-one who was actually in the area of the crash actually stopped.

And then after a quick phone call loads of people came and started talking to him and squaring up with me saying things like "have you passed your test?" and "can you drive?"

So I know for certain he's going to have a lot of false witnesses, Good job I got the reg's of the people's cars he was talking to and a couple of my own witnesses.

Yes you can get it fixed for way way under 4k, BUT when you go through insurance companies, its a whole new ball game.

overpriced decals? Any need? Understand the airbag if you were walloped in the face... if the roof needs repainting maybe they damaged it at the "approved garage" also with the windscreen... wtf?

I take it you damaged the chasis or caused a vibration so hard it caused the windscreen to damage?

Overpriced tbh peej but I don't know where you stand on this one, if the payout isn't above £4k then I'd think twice tbh.

Its a joke, mate had a VX220, in traffic pulled into the back of someone when he wasnt looking (twat I know lol) at literally 5mph, back of avensis just had dust on, but cos the VX is all one front clamshell they said like £3k or something stupid, all in all got £7k+ in mind for a 5mph knock that coudl've been fixed for about £2k private.

But.. that £7k included, a new front seat, and new windscreen, new dash surround, none of which were even slightly damaged, not sure how you damage a plastic dash piece, or a fixed (pretty uncomfy) lightly leather bucket.

/Pointless story, well.. the point is, some of us have a valid reason to complain about insurance costs when we dont even get what is deserved.

Hope all goes well mate.

Repeating what others have said but -

Windscreen shizzle?
Roof painting?
£52 for a bagde?

Did your airbags go off?

Some of the things are guestimates, also they haven't included a new front splitter on that.

They said the roof would need painting because there is a crease in the roof.

I honestly have no idea if they are just marking down the tiniest of things.

Airbag didnt go off so I have no idea where they've got that from.

thats worth like 4 - 5 times my car haha. Insurance covering it?

How much is the car worth?

When I took out the insurance I had an agreeded value of 5k

go through that effnik origins insurance,
boom. its fixed for free?

Thing is I need to prove that it was his fault that he caused the accident. Which I dont think is going to be easy.

He could be kind of deemed guilty for doing one though.

Be wrote off tomorrow.

Quite excessive it seems on the face of it, but guess it's about right.

As said above, things mentioned on the parts list that aren't need and some things missing that I know I need.

Hoping they dont write it off but I know this will be the case.

As stated, roof painting?

Im not going to be excepting any stupid offer if they write the car off and will be buying it back for sure.

Loads of stuff to sell to get a fair bit of money back.

I know yeah a few people have said that at work.

The entire situation is a joke tbh.
