Sad times
 
looks like im gonna be looking for a new scoobie as some nice chap decided to drive straight through a give way and ploughed into me :( proper gutted ive spent so much time and money on it! now im concerned his insurance company will come back with a cruelly low payout! i just hope i can find a replacement as i feel like im missing a leg without it! I have been given a lovely courtesy car audi A8 3litre tdi quattro sport but its just not the same! !

Start compiling a file of comparable cars from autotrader, PH, etc.

This will help you go into battle!

Had to do this when my wife's 106 caught fire (with her in it), as the offer given took the mick! Got a proper settlement in the end, but it was a protracted affair. I'd have my armoury stocked if it ever happened again.

Thats what i thought, seems strange that the company wouldn't have put it back to standard plates and flogged the private one!

scoobie_paul 29-12-2012 10:47 AM

I feel your pain mate, mine is in the repair shop at the moment thanks to some stupid woman, if your insurance company is anything like mine be aware of a lot of paperwork to read.

scoobie_paul 29-12-2012 05:17 PM
