Wind is Gay



  Monaco Blue Mk2
:mad: Just got home to find a piece of flashing has come off our chimney in this stupid wind, only went and landed on my bonnet. Needs a respray but fortunately not dented by the looks of it. Any idea if that can claimed off house insurance?

Insurance company will probably say it was 'An act of God'

A chap at work has just has his side panel dented by one of those big SITA company bins. Happened to me last year in the wind, but managed to claim from SITA as they hadnt applied the brakes!

Sorry to hear about the bonnet

Wind is no where near as bad as that storm back in 1987..now that really was windy.

Didn't think there'd be much chance of claiming off the house insurance. I'm certainly not claiming off my car insurance. Marvellous, that's gonna cost me about a ton just for paint probably, i'd take it off and re-fit myself but have heard the bonnets a hard job.

Think you have to get a new bonnet cos it cheap way to do it. They are hard to remove the dents on bonnet and cost bills to fix it!

sorry to hear that mate and hope you get sorted

heh, just opened my door to have my door fly open and the door skin pulled off under the wing mirror and the skin to crumple. I'm speaking to insurance as it was a door skin replaced in my crash in Sept, that shouldn't have happened....

My dad is stuck in London as all trains out have been cancelled.

Do I get in the Clio and go in for a resuce or tell him to find a place to sleep for the night ? :(

I'm sure the work colleague didnt find it funny :(

Those wheelie bins a f**king nuisance. Always falling over in the street.

Stay away from your car mate.

I heard that the MD of Birmingham airport was killed this morning. Drove into a small tree apparantly.

My bonnet got mashed at work on friday.

Not happy to have the dents 'repaired', [you'll always see them] so I'm having a new bonnet, sprayed and fitted, make sure paint finish blends into wings nicely. Couple of stone chips will get sorted on the bumper same time;)

Works paying the bill.

Renault approved bodyshop, use the original Ixell paints used by Renault, comes out at £350+VAT.
