Guest Paul [MVP] Posted April 17, 2003 Report Posted April 17, 2003 Was eating dinner in a restaurant this afternoon, and some b&^%$"d hit the back of my car, and went without leaving their details ;) So, I have to pay for a new back bumper, not cheap (or the insurance excess, also not cheap on a group 17 car...) :cry: P
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted April 17, 2003 Report Posted April 17, 2003 Painful. :/ I'm hurting for ye...
Guest casper508 Posted April 17, 2003 Report Posted April 17, 2003 Outch !! ;) :) I know the feeling mate. Last year some f&^%£r smashed the front passenger's window just to grab my mom's parking badge! It cost me less getting it done privately compared to the insurance access. Cas
Guest rocknsock2k Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 sorry to hear it mate but if u ever find them kick som a$$
Guest Will Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 Paul, I guess you parked out of CCTV range?? at least you had your car for more than 4 hours before someone hit it!! Will
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 Yeah, it was parked at the rushcutter's arms, no CCTV ;) Someone smack yours then? P
Guest Will Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 yep, just after i got it home from showroom, side quarter! - but only 40quid for a new panel.. LoveMySmartCar!!! Will
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 40 quid for a new panel... That's awesome ;) P
Guest mcwarre Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 Painful. :/ I'm hurting for ye... Mono, You almost sound sincere :wink: P, I had someone in a truck rip the rear door drivers door and front wing of my stationary car. His response? He started laughing. Good job he was 6'4" and 20 Stone or I would have hurt my knuckles. :twisted: :twisted: Still, I got back £3000 on a car I had for 3 years that cost £3800. Not bad eh (apart from my insurance went up for a n on-fault accident :evil: :evil: ) (Was Norwich Union; wasn't your department??? ;) :) )
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 You should see the state of my car...
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 mcwarre: I would have gone mental at the guy! P
Guest mcwarre Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 P If I could have got out of the drivers door. Luckily my missus was in the passenger side and wouldn't let me out. I would probably got in trouble but it would have made me feel much better....
Guest rocknsock2k Posted April 18, 2003 Report Posted April 18, 2003 sounds very painful dude i wud of gone apesh!t
Guest PsychoDave Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Yup Would have been most upset....and probably most injured too. Got a bad habit of starting things I can't quite finish. But anyways I had the entire back seat of my car stolen a few years back just because the numptys who were trying to steal my speakers couldn't get them out of the parcel shelf which was attached to the back seat so they took the lot. My neighbour saw them run off with my seat and two speakers worth about 30p. Gotta laugh eh? :?
Guest Matt Whitfield Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Paul, I don't know if you've been to Audi yet but to give you an idea, my g/f has been quoted £450 for a new front bumper for her A3 Quattro (it's got a tiny hole in it and a few small scratches after an incident with a post...). That roughly breaks down as £150 for the bumper itself, around £100 for paint (I think) and the rest was labour...
Guest spacecowboy6982 Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 "]2002 A4 3.0 Quattro... P OMG - its a beast!!! :twisted:
Guest Ras Posted April 23, 2003 Report Posted April 23, 2003 Can somebody please hit my car...I need a better excuse than "it would be nice" to get a new car :wink: !!! Sure it runs OK, but I am sick of kids laughing when I drive past... :oops: :oops: :oops:
Guest Ras Posted April 23, 2003 Report Posted April 23, 2003 Hmmm...never thought I would post this, purposely did a "read-only" on the car topic!!! I drive a Renault 5... Bring on the laughter...mock me as the 10yr olds on my street do!!! ;)
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted April 23, 2003 Report Posted April 23, 2003 That's a bit harsh... I might have a nice car now, but when I first passed my test I had a Lada! (hangs head in shame) P
