It does indeed :)
Also consider the High Capacity format the PS3 has, compared to the standard DVD format of the 360, meaning more space for more raw information meaning possibly bigger levels, more memory intensive graphics, HD audio codecs, big single player AND multiplayer games :)
The PS3 is not losing it in the slightest - the 360 is reaching its technical / graphical limits whereas the PS3 is only just showing what its capable of (with the likes of KZ2 and Unchartered 2).
I am not a fanboy and own both consoles however ;)
Well it should be based on buying an equivelant based spec / model - same for all insurance companies....
Heres the parkers guide valuation :
Original Price£13,000 Franchised Dealer£6,670 Independent Dealer£6,305 Private Good £5,385 Private Poor £3,880 Part Exchange£4,415

Right then an update!
Having just phoned flux, they told me a cheque for £2650 is on its way to me (£3000 offer minus my £350 excess)
I said i'd obviously be refusing this and they said to cash the cheque as an interim payment and to send in evidence of cars that I feel reflect the true...
The third party just contacted me (the farmer who's field i ended up in) saying he had no contact off them.
- Contacted flux, got a ref number and phone number for him, do they contact directly? No
- Asked if there was a direct number I could phone for Equity - No
- Asked if there was a...
Not good dude, glad it all got sorted out for you though.
I contacted Adrian Flux again today, and got the same old manure - 'Your insurers have received all the documents and will be reveiwing the case before making an offer'. So no further forward :(
I haven't once spoken to my insurance...
My car is currently sat on my driveway (it has been since the accident), the salvage company contacted me wanting to collect it on Monday (26/10/09), I however refused to relinquish what is still my property until an offer has been made / agreed / settled.
My brokers are Adrian Flux (who I...
How long does it normally take for a claim such as a write off to be settled? As I again contacted my brokers today, who confirmed my insurance company had received all my documents and would be reveiwing the case, and contacting me next week.
An update - phoned my brokers adrian flux today and they told me I needed to send my V5, MOT, Insurance policy, service history and purchase receipt documents off to equity redstar before they come back with an offer, which I have done, but not without photocopying the relevant documents first...
s**t happens i guess, just have to get on with it.
I am currently looking at an Astra GSI Mk4 Turbo or an EP3 type R as a replacment, insurance depending if course.
I got a letter through the post today, sent the day after I phoned up to claim, asking for my V5 logbook, Insurance policy document and MOT / service history - i'm not inclined to send it until they phone me and say 100% its a writeoff though :S.
Also the salvage company contacted me today...
Well having phoned my insurance company this morning I got a quote on a standard 2003 Civic Type R with no mods and a vallue of £6000......
£2575 per year! F*ck that!
FFS whats the point in paying for PNCB then when either way as soon as you make a claim your insurance quotes shoot up in price?!?!
I will get a quote off my current insurance company today and see what they say...
But with PNCB i'm safe......right? So when i'm getting quotes off insurance companies can I state i still have 5+ years NCB? (I have / had 7 until the crash).
Cheers for the helpful replies so far and much thanks to gally for the detailed pm:D
I must say i'm a little concerned about this talk of my policy becoming cancelled as it means the purchase of a new car, paying the excess on hy current policy, a new insurance policy, not cheap!:dapprove:
I unfortunately crashed my 172 cup on the 15th October, and it was recovered / sitting on my driveway. Today an assessor was sent out who confirmed it was 'probably' a write off, saying he would be sending the report to my insurance company who will then contact me.
Now having never been in...
