You can alter the brightness and change the reaction timing. I'd say he needs to set it up better lol ?.

It's rust free but might have the odd tiny bubble starting to show. Would need to double check later. With Adrian Flux

You let one person put you off? I always found Brookie (as he later became) a decent lad.

It's difficult to tell if the exhaust has been pushed/bent in a bit or the hangers aren't right but it's no longer attached to the hangers.

Update time, I managed to get the boot to lock now which is good news. Waiting for the insurance company to get back to me regarding a hire car etc.. And here's a few pics I got of the boot floor damage.

I'm incline to agree if possible at the minute. Case of do bare minimum and run it as a shed or chuck good money at it and sort the rest of the niggles with it to make it mint again. Mechanically it's sound. No disrespect but probably better starting your own thread for that one?

Interesting, New bumper is under 100 but would need a spray so could add another 3-400 on top of that and it wouldn't be too bad.

How much did that set you back so I have an idea? PM if you prefer thanks.

Here's the damage to the other car.

Already insurance from the off. AA recovery said they'd be claiming their costs back for the trip home. That and it was a fair old whack that I got, my head twatted the headrest quite hard. I'm starting to think he might have been reving his engine for me to do the same, majorly failed at it and...

I need to give my bike a good look over tomorrow. Was 500 yards away from LUBP when it happened lol. It got pushed into the front seat so hopefully that gave it enough room to just move...

Wouldn't like to say really. Sure I'll get change out of the 3k or whatever I get back after buy back but it'll then always be a cat d or what ever they are now...

How f**king bizarre, I'm a numb skull now as well as a brexiteer ???.

So anyway back on topic... I know you'll all say pics are needed here which I wish I'd got before now but with the shock, adrenaline, fucked offness and headache I didn't think to. I'll get some in the morning! But if I say I want to keep hold of the car how easy is it likely to be to get it to...

I voted to stay in ???. Well on topic though, thanks!

Seriously what the f**k are you talking about? Get away with what??? I have nothing to proove. Are you trying to suggest I'm lying about the state of my boot floor prior to the incident? Don't judge me by your own poor standards if that's the case.

f**k off being a patronising dick!! I'm not a mechanic and I don't have a drive to store the car on. But that doesn't mean I don't like my car. It was involved in a crash so it got reported to the insurance as it should have been. I'll see what happens when they get in touch tomorrow. I might...

. Yes I have thanks. I've had this car 6 years now and it's been within CS ownership for a lot longer than that. I had a 172 for 5 before that. I'm an enthusiast so I'm not sure what your trying to suggest tbh?

Wtf are you on about?

Should be able to get some tomorrow.

Errm no it wouldn't. The boot doesn't stay shut. And whats with the "ffs"? Are you trying to suggest I shouldn't go through insurance?

iirc it'll be just short of 4k with agreed value?. Should put me in another nice one. Just a matter of finding one...

I'd have had your RB straight off you if you still had it for sale lol?

Don't think so but I wasn't really looking until the last split second as I caught it in the mirror through the corner of my eye and then it was thump ?. He seemed quite decent at the time tbh. Kept apologising for it etc...

Don't think he was right up my arse before the point of impact at least lol. Think he was one of those strange folk who like to waist their clutch by slowly creeping forward a bit instead of just waiting with the handbrake on. He was young too!

Cheers, they'll be ringing me in the morning (just weekend staff when I reported it) and will see about keeping it when I speak to them... It's given me a nice headache at the moment so just going to leave it tonight.

I think I'll have to let them have it, I don't have anywhere that I can keep it ?. The only thing I could do is find someone willing to buy and take it asap!

So I was in a queue of traffic in Leeds this aft and the lad behind accidently slipped off his clutch and went into the back of me. Absolutely gutted. The boot floor now has a large bend in it so I'd say it's going to be a write off which is a shitter

Spout? ? It was just a suggestion on why the cable might be 10mm longer on the 182. I didn't really feel the need to spend the evening researching an answer that I did say in the 1st place might be wrong... ?

Quick google and this is 1st review that says otherwise! "The ride is less fidgety over bumpy surfaces, too, largely due to a longer wheelbase and wider track. " https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/car-reviews/15697/renaultsport-clio-182-20-16v
