In the desert iirc

Oooooo really!!!!!

The engineers deal with the valuation and settlement mate. I've yet to see an engineer "rob" a policyholder. Even though they know the car could be bought from auction for £400 they still pay out maybe £800+.

To pick up on the cat C part. It doesn't quite work like that if they follow the rules or if the policyholder knows the rules. 90% of engineers I know stick to the rules. Rbs insurance companies are the best on the market. Direct Line, Privilege ect..

They are not at all dishonourable. If you do something wrong, give false information, modifications ect... you're more than entitled to a shafting. The financial ombudsman controls insurance companies. They aren't a law unto themselves that some people seem to think they are. I can honestly...

It's kinda hard to explain. If policyholders knew what they were legally entitled to we wouldn't have any insurance companies left. I know the industry inside out and there probably isn't a question I haven't asked. The problem begins because people don't know what they're entitled to...

What Revels said earlier in the thread sums the car up for me.

Wrong. Common misconception mate. They will pay out the market value unless they go to the hassle of proving the repair is of seriously poor quality. Why did you get it repaired? I have to ask.

Wow. Not used to forum banter are you! :( Sowy. Welcome by the way.

Seriously. I have serious issues with attention seekers from Facebook. It's unhealthy.

I've seen the pics... I'm oot. Asw.

Any pics in here yet?

Looks like silicone pop to me to. Probably from some dodgy products in the garage mate. Only has to be in the air for it to ruin paint.

What a beautiful car. Really is just so pretty. Great buy.

Lols. Definite roids.

Good shout! Dis gona bem... Oh wait!

McDonalds advert?

Amazing mate. Do a search for my thread. Now over 24 months (domestic) on 75% discount from them and never had to phone them once for line problems. 100% recommend.

Wonder why they didn't pay out. Illegal tyres aren't a reason not to pay out btw. You'd have to prove the tyres contributed to the accident. Hard thing to prove.

It wouldn't surprise me. Standard it probably shows up some serious metal.

It'll be cheaper but they pretty much still need painted. People think they only need re-lacquered but it doesn't quite work that way. At least they're not damaged so easy fix. :) Anywhere local to get them done mate?

Unreal. The l/h tyre actually looks illegal in that picture! Mental!

Great upgrade mate and a bargain at the moment imo. I do still worry about reliability, especially with the age so jyst beware, but tbh being on a forum does that to you.

Old Beemers can be fantastic must be honest!

A bit tidier mate. How you liking it?

Yeah i'm loving all the Ford's on here. It's a bloody good allround car. Have a look at my posts in this section and find out how much I appreciate different cars. Maybe it's an inferiority thing.

I think Roy was joking. To get that done in my bodyshop, correctly via insurance would be a £1200+ repair.

This doesn't stop it looking s**t though... Right?

No offence but you're hardly going to tell him it added 50bhp after spending that kind of wedge. I'm just no into RR's really.

They look rather crap. Oem+.
