    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    It was supposed to arrive by 830 came to 850 and I had to leave, problem is the people who are taking over from me are actually good friends of mine and I don't want to do anything that can cause them any hassle from the hierarchy at HO, just got off the phone and all very apologetic despite not...

    on the blower now, truth be told I've got 3 days left at my current job and so much to do, not even had lunch or anything just too busy, on hold now though. someone just been shitty with me here at work so I'm passing that on to someone else as soon as they pick up the phone.

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    Insurance Company Called just now, they are offering £3200 to settle, but I'll have to cover fees for the claims management which is around £200 at the moment, PI claim still on going. Courtesy car never turned up.

    'highly modified'

    If it has a proper airbag suspension that's worth a fortune alone, Crap advert for what's been done though.

    It was 3 pairs of glasses, 2 actual pairs of normal glasses and 1 pair of sunglasses, all Ray Ban though. Saying that If I have the original invoice for the car in April Showing 3+K that should help no? plus the Ebay link is still live showing £4K.

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    The only pic I have of the car is in this thread. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?716170-J41-spray-paint-any-suppliers-on-here&p=9827886#post9827886 and that's just from the back, and is pretty useless.

    My Main job isn't freelance, my consultancy work in my spare time / weekend is, reason I came back to work is I'm leaving for another job next week and have a lot to do and hand over, I'm on holiday from 06-10/11 and starting new job on the 11th, don't have a great deal of time to get anything...

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    In May it was just a regular 182 and completely standard, I posted the advert when I joined in April and you all saw that as it was sold as a Cup but wasn't, since June - July was when i put more bits onto it, had the bumpers, skirts repainted, recaros from West Drayton Salvage were end of June.

    The taping noise was before and after the service, it turned out one of the manifold bolts came loose, and not many journalists are out at 230AM in the middle of surrey in the pissing rain I think.

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    I know it doesn't add value to the car and isn't going to make it worth the extra 2k I've put into it, but what I would have thought is that is would come into the equation, surely anyone can put a car up for 3.5K as mint and it may well be if completely OEM, but mine which is like for like to...

    I've done half of that, and I'm sorry if I coming across as Greedy, I didn't think the mods would increase the value but surely if they are declared they should be taken into account in the amount of money that went up in flames? I have no pics at all of the car, I have lost all pics I have...

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    No there are decent examples out there at the moment, I think Steve might have some going but they are the best ones I think and not like his, nothing out there branded as VCG actually exists, only mint or shitter it seems, And f**king right I will worry about these things, why should I have to...

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    The issue I'm having is I have nothing to prove the condition of the car now, I had pics from the week before when it was cleaned but they were on the phone only which was left in the wreck, it's all my opinion and I appreciate that but all I am after is current selling value for a decent...

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    The guys you posted seem quite good, the insurers phoned me this morning with a higher payout but I'm not dealing with them now, they can sweat it out among themselves. They seem very keen and I'll keep updating on the progress as other people may want to use them, it's Cup killing season after...

    Good Point harv, I know someone in the Opticians I got them from too, saying that I have a record there and all 3 pairs were bought from them so they may in fact have the sales history etc still.

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    I actually just thought as it said Vehicle Value £3500 that's what it meant to be honest, lesson learned indeed. So I guess for everyone else on here should just do their renewal on their Clios @£1250 as that what the trade value actually is on WBAC and maybe save on a premium?

    Courtesy car being delivered tomorrow, not that I can drive at the moment, but should speed things up, claims management company seem relentless. Insurance company called me up this morning obviously aware of them and tried to settle without going through them ( making me liable for thier fees )...

    "Clio Tax"

    Also let's not forget, price comparisons, if you were selling parts for a Clio who would you complete with, Ktec....... all they will do is check their prices and sell them slightly lower, regardless of peoples opinions.

    "Clio Tax"

    Not that's true Phil it really is, the most locigal although most unreasonable is so many people boost / ITB / SC these things at phenomenal cost so they'll probably have a formula as to what these upgrades are worth to the cost of these jobs vs the same work on others cars too, I bet it's more...

    "Clio Tax"

    Rnd Costs, changing the cams on a 106 is far quicker / easier / cheaper than a 1*2, has a much bigger following and being it's more popular so demand will be affected, look at Cooksport springs as an example, they don't even have any stock and rated to be the best, it's all supply and demand...

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    The Police did turn up as did an ambulance to cart me off, don't recall much of it, just a panic in trying to get out of the car, didn't even feel any pain until I arrived at the hospital and saw myself in the mirror, thankfully my perfect features are intact somehow. Taxi drivers are a menace...

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    I can do yeah, but I think it'll take me a lot longer to get in it than a regular car, it's only around £400 PA to cover commuting and tbh as well this has sort of frightened me a little and when I'm all sorted I might get something a bit bigger and safer than a Clio, was bricking it on the way...

    Is it normal for a Clio to Catch Fire in a Crash, Insurance problem

    I have no pics of anything past last month when I changed phones, Phone is probably molted and crispy by now, no I cannot even be a passenger in the front, have to sit sideways in the back atm. Was travelling at 50 ish in a national road, the A322, the other guy god knows what he was doing but...
