been in an accident tonight - RIP Williams :o(

[iarno]

A guy smashed into the back of a car who them slammed into the back of me and i hit the guy infront. :dapprove:

damage back and front including bent bonnet (it now wont open) smashed headlights, bumpers all smashed in. The rear bumber is smashed up, rear left arch has crumpled a bit, it's also crumpled up the side towards the roof, the bottom of the boot is crumpled on one side as well.
will almost certainly be a write-off i'd imagine.

They've just come to tow her away to be locked up ready for the body shop tomorrow.

all because someone wasn't paying enough attention whilst driving.


absolutely gutted. :dapprove:

[paddyirishman]

Sh1t one mate, everybody ok?

 

[Vish]

Sorry to hear that mate.

He must have hit the car behind you at some speed if it caused so much damage to yours, hope police take action against him if this wasn't a one off.

 

[vortex114]

gutted for u mate!! hope ur ok!

 

[drunknmunky]

glad ur alright dude, get a claim in there

 

[drummie]

Unlucky mate, hope your ok.

 

[iarno]

cheers guys.
just can't believe it. had the car for nearly 4 years.
some of the others complained of whiplash but i felt ok at the time but now i'm definitely starting to feel it. not gonna bother with a claim, it's not worth it.

the guy was just joining the dual carriage way, i'm told he was looking over his shoulder, accelerated to get out in front of a car not realising that we were all coming to a standstill for traffic lights and boom, i heard a massive smash and before i even had chance to looking my rear mirror i got hit.

if they write it off, i'm not even sure if i'll get another williams, just wont be the same.

have got pics but have lost my phone cable so can't get them on yet.
will try at the weekend.

I would claim mate my mate did got £8,000 for bein a passenger in a crash.

 

[ChrisD172]

definately get the wiplash claim and that in mate!

 

[iarno]

definately get the wiplash claim and that in mate!

tbh, so many people claim now-a-days for supposed "whiplash" it kind of spoils of it for when people actual need to.

plus i can walk about, it's just very sore so i can't really justify it. If i was seriously hurt then definitely but not just for this.

 

[Vish]

TBH mate, you're sore because of someones error, I think you should make a claim.

If you're not injured I wouldn't make a claim but you are.

 

[jester2k]

Claim if you really have whiplash, you will get the money for a nice car/holiday.

I'm sorry, but why are you not claiming for this!!

Do you not realise that it may not effect you too much now, but in a few years, you could have some bigger problems!

You should definitely claim!

 

[paddyirishman]

Claim, everybody else will be. You might not feel too bad now but you could still be feeling the effects in a few years.

 

[Neil G]

Definately claim

agree.

 

[joebristolgym]

Had an ex and she had the same as you, and it effects her years later because she didn't go and have it looked at/treated by a physio straight away. She claimed for it and got a pay out, but it was too late to sort her neck out. Gets headaches all the time now.

Get some physio, and make a claim to pay for that and have some spare.

 

[Blue4Ever]

As bad as it feels/sounds, I'd claim mate. At the end of the day every other c**t will and you'll end up out of pocket if you don't. You'll probably get a poor payout for the car and then your insurance will go up despite it not being your fault.

 

[Andy.]

Particularly as the effects can go on for years. My sister also put a claim in when somebody crashed into her but she is still feeling the effects quite seriously three years on!

Unlucky mate.

awww gutted for you mate... pics?

Yes what a shame but any piccs?

 

[*Badger*]

Claim for whiplash, i have but be advised its a very long process, my crash was a year ago yesterday and i've still not recieved my compo. The 3rd party keep making poor offers so my case goes to court on Sept 17th, it can be a very long process, i've had to fill in a lot of forms and spent a lot of time on the phone, its worth it, but you often need patience. But i agree with everyone else's comments, you shouldnt be in pain or out of pocket in any way for someone else's actions.

 

[DebV6]

Gutted Hope you're ok.

 

[iarno]

just a quick update.

The car has been declared a write-off. :dapprove:
kind of expected it to be honest.
i will be buying it back and either selling it for someone to break for spares or possibly breaking it myself. would prefer to sell it to someone else for them to strip though

if anyone is interested then let me know.

 

[Beef-Mc]

Unlucky bud

 

[Bradharding]

Yeah unlucky. But best for it to be right off. Not worth fixing up by the sounds of it. Did you make a claim? I hope so.

 

[crazyeyezclio]

i agree with the rest put a claim in. Whiplash can haunt you in the future with serious back probs.

 

[VeinAST]

Keep it and transfer everything over to a decent valver shell and you'll have your Williams back

 

[iarno]

yeah my necks kind of got worse so it's being dealt with.

nah think it's time to move on from the williams. fantastic car, but if i got another one it just wouldn't be the same.

i'm thinking about a honda civic type r ek9.

general thoughts?

 

[Beef-Mc]

Nice upgrade are my thoughts

 

[iarno]

just a quick update - obviously sold my written off williams.. was sad to see her go as she was in pretty mint condition :dapprove:

but it gave me the chance to get a new car and i had my heart set on Civic Type R EK9 (Jap import) have had it a couple of weeks and i'm loving it.

Once you get it up in Vtec, it would have eaten my williams and if im honest, it would probably take it in the corners too. Here's a few pics. its completely standard apart from the lip on the front bumper.

Comments welcome.

 

[VeinAST]

Not my thing but Christopher will be fapping himself stupid over it! Glad you're pleased with the new car!!

 

[iarno]

cheers matey.
not to everyone's taste im sure.


i had my reservations but once i sat in one and drove it... that was it tbh!
