Lexx Posted December 16, 2010 Author Posted December 16, 2010 Thanks for all the kind words guys. Yeah, im just glad no-one else was involved and hurt, and that there was no-one on the pavement as we went sideways along it for 15 meters. Car is getting picked up by VX tomorrow, and is in the hands of the insurance company. I suspect they will write it off, due to the cost of parts from Oz. Gutted and aching. Quote
ATTAK Z Posted December 16, 2010 Posted December 16, 2010 time for a nice white Zed ? edit ..... do you know where it is ? Quote
Lexx Posted December 16, 2010 Author Posted December 16, 2010 time for a nice white Zed ? edit ..... do you know where it is ? My old Zed? Not a clue. It was for sale on Auto Trader back in August from the garage that took it in part ex. Not seen it since. Quote
Walbertonio Posted December 16, 2010 Posted December 16, 2010 Gutted for you, least all are OK though! Quote

bounty78 Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Sorry to hear this Lexx..hopefully the insurance company will give u a decent pay out Hate this weather it's a mine field for sports cars Quote
Lexx Posted December 18, 2010 Author Posted December 18, 2010 With your luck I am dreading the drive south next week Al. The cheek of it! I'll just sit in the back and be quiet I think. lol Quote
martinmac Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 I am doing a long trip so you may get a lift back too. Quote
Shuck Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Lexx.......Nooooooooooooooooo! On the plus side, as everyone else have said, I'm glad you are ok and that no one was on the pavement you a 'boardslide' on. I saw Coopes and lee out in Boro over xmas and they told me about this. I've only just got around to coming online now. Hope you get a favourable result from the insurance company. Fingers crossed for you. Quote
Lexx Posted January 6, 2011 Author Posted January 6, 2011 Well, I got the work yesterday from the insurance that she is being repaired. No-where near as much damage as suspected. Total is around £5k, and that includes the £1500 for a new alloy. Quote
R35LEE Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Well get it back and I am sure you will find a buyer for the beast soon enough mate Quote
H5 Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Sorry to hear this Lexx, good news the repair bill seems reasonable though!! Quote
sparky370z Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 I would just make sure all of the work gets done to a high standard. Bit different i know but my clio was bodged by the garage. I had a mate look at it and he said the work was shocking. And to take it back. The sub frame had been reshaped and not replaced like they said they would do. Just filled and sprayed the front bumper. Really pi**ed me off as i had paid the exess of 500 quid. Quote
morgan25 Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 If you don't mind me asking who is doing the repairs? Quote
