Write off??

[Johnc172]

First time I've driven my cup turbo in 3 weeks....some 17 year old bell end does this...

 

[Johnc172]

Write off you think?

 

[Mar172]

Write off you think?

Yes I would think so mate sorry to see that .

 

[Clart]

Quite possible with a creased boot floor

 

[DaveDreads]

That'll pull out mate, i've seen far worse saved from the scrap yard,
depends if you know a decent mechanic.

Your​ insurance company might not think the same though. :dapprove:

 

[MarcB]

I would also say the same as the rear floor has a crease in it

 

[Djw John]

Yup I would say write off but defo fixable to a good enough standard for what looks like a track car

 

[The Russian.]

If rear floor is creased it will be a write off Mate but can buy back at 10% of the cost repair it and keep IMO

 

[DaveDreads]

Drive it to a body shop and ask for a quote on having the crease pulled out,
then compare that to the price of increased insurance premiums for a few years.

​You might find it cheaper to just get the thing repaired.

 

[Johnc172]

Anyone think that the boot floor can be pulled out?

 

[mi16chris]

Anyone think that the boot floor can be pulled out?

It could be pulled no problem but insurance will write it off I would say

 

[mitch1503]

will be wrote off, as said tho that'l pull out iv'e seen cars like that before where its been pulled out

 

[batesey]

Such a shame when this happens, imo fix it up!

 

[DaveDreads]

Drive round a couple of body shops tomorrow, get a couple of quotes then you know where you stand.

 

[Knuckles]

Get the grinder out and weld in a 182 boot floor

 

[Baylis]

yep definitely a write off, you must be gutted

 

[Martin.]

Definitely a write off unfortunately mate. Sorry to hear it. But it'll definitely fix up. Mine was similar. Cost me a grand cash to repair.

Get the pay out but ask for the car too. Keep it, repair it. Bobs your uncle.

 

[Mr Plums]

Get a new bumper and boot carpet f**k it.

 

[MarcB]

Get a new bumper and boot carpet f**k it.

Thats exactly what i would do :approve:

 

[Gally]

I'm guessing the tailgate isn't damaged?

It'll be touch and go. It's probably the easiest repair in the world. The boot floor is designed to crumple like that but it'll seriously take a hammer and dolly to straighten.

Anyway, personally i'd hope they write it off. Buy it back, new bumper, boot carpet or something and pocket a grand to treat yourself or your OH.

 

[Johnc172]

If its gets written off then its a cat D forever then, the kids mum has offered to pay for it, going to a garage tomorrow with her to see what's what, see what happens then eh!

 

[Johnc172]

He was in his mum's fiesta as well, double fook up!

 

[mitch1503]

i so she'l not want 2 be paying the excess either cos no doubt he won't be able 2 pay it, get it fixed and try got some extra cash out of her for your troubles... i would anyways lol

 

[Pyrah]

Personally i would claim on your insurance and then get your car back and either sell it whole or break it. Also say you have whiplash so you get a bit more money. Mate has done it in his golf and made 10k from it.

Could buy a few Clios for that mate

thats my insurance up again next year...

 

[Ryanph1rs]

They'll write it off because its damaged the chassis and will need to be pulled out on a jig go see a body shop they should be able to pull it out as it isn't really too bad I'd avoid the insurance as ull be waiting months for a pay out and all that s**t just make him pay up and kick the f**k into him I hate these little kids nowadays they rag about and have no idea how a car handles they should all be forced to do a track day as part of their test to understand more.

You can't claim whiplash like that because he's got out the car and all now my next door neighbour is a traffic copper n he was saying if you want to make a claim for whiplash you have to stay in the car they'll call the fire brigade to come and cut the roof off the car and get an ambulance to get u out with out moving your neck... It's to stop s**t like this happening and people making false claims or claims 4-5 days later ... Also bullshit whiplash claims rape insurance premiums at least the boys mint her has been reasonable be civil first would be my idea.... And still kick the f**k into him

Why would a car be a write off if the chassis is damaged? Which it's not by the way.

What utter nonsense you speak.

 

[Munson]

TBF there will be damage to the rear end. Something has to push the boot floor in?

 

[Chi]

Sometimes the effects of whiplash come days later.. Never heard this about staying in the car.
Don't forget you are claiming of their insurance which shouldn't effect your ncd

 

[Dave..]

Whiplash happens within two hours of a crash happening, when the adrenaline wears off, your sat on a hospital bed and your muscles say "f**k this, you're having some pain"

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

I had no pain when i crashed my car (It was my fault lol) but a few hours later it was awful and I could barely move. I don't understand how you can't claim if you didn't stay in the car lol!, I'm completely against claiming but there are occasions where it's justified if you miss out on work etc.

 

[Cookson]

Fuckin claim culture c***s

You could have saved typing all that and just wrote ''I'm a c**t''.

 

[GrahamS]

Yes

Cat D

She would only have to pay her excess if she claimed for damage to her car. If you were the only claim then she wouldn't have to pay.

Don't go privately. Let me know if you want help with valuations as I'm up to date with all the ombudsman lark
