well its basically scrap yeah, but its not on paper scrap yet, but im not letting them do that, so it wont need vic or anything because im repairing it myself wheres if it went through the insurance like properly so basically if they do come out ( which i think they wont) it wont be down as scrap

so that mean they paying it out there pocket?

cant claim for whiplash that way:P * coff *

its hard explain on here, haha, well i'm getting money to get it repaired off his insurance but im repairing it myself so basically his insurance arnt coming to collect my car to take it be repaired im taking it myself to naths bosses garage if your with me lol?

And oh yes i can haha

im in a bloody neck collar and off work so i should hope so haha

ahhh u found quote urself and they agreed?

the make thims worse them collars just get some diazes they work wonders :L

well ive got to send two estimates off to my insurance, and still waiting for one so its all a waiting game tbh, and yeah lol

please tell me your not claiming off your insurance and then letting them claim off these?

they offered me that with mine tho that means it can be left open for years and if u get an insurance quote "basically" u claimed off urself so u have no no claimes bonus'

its complicated, im getting money for my repairs off his insurance who bashed me, just gotta send estimates off monday tho... hard to explain but i know im doing right thing dont worry

sorry to hear about the car
i no its a bit l8 lol have not had internet for about a week

arr dont worry mate, not been on myself, well assessor been out today.. AND! Good news, its not been written off, i'm over the moon he was nice ( apart from waking me at 8 o clock with out no warning what time he was coming out lol) he was more concerned about my mhw because they are expensive, and 70 quid more and it would of gone over the budget and it would been scrap! :/ so told him leave lights then as i didnt want it written off.. So all good news, will hopefully have it all repaired within the next few weeks!

thats kl at least its geting payed for. it will be good as new
also did you make the bracket for ur front number plate?

yeah

and they are 2 little L shaped brackets =)

2nd car ive seen on here whats had a crash. sorry to hear. you ok now? hope you and car get better soon

Well, what can I say, car went in for repair a week n half a go, was done in less than a week.. BUT! Major but, the guys insurance Aviva are totally crap and haven't sent the garage the authorisation letter, so without that, I cannot get my car back, currently got a courtesy car though, but I want my car back .

Good news: I got a letter off the Police, and the lad has got a ban, and has to attend an alertness course, if he doesn't attend that then he gets a fine and maybe worse, once the bans up he has to retake his test... I think maybe he has other convictions as its a bit weird for not quite a serious incident to get a ban... Hmm

Anyways, my car is done like I said, but there is some pics how it was, and there is a few how it is now :
