I know...it's just so sickening how quick they write a perfectly good car off :-(

At least you can buy it back and fix it and put a supercharger on it ;)

Ouch! What an arse :evil:
Is that rear wing crumple from this crash too, or was that there before?

The door would repair, but for what it will cost to be buy a straight used one, possibly not worth the Labour?

You're lucky the skirts and lip are undamaged at least. hopefully there's not any inner arch damage?

Not sure on the inner wing...been to busy to give it a proper once over.

Any damage on the passenger was caused by the prang :-(

Not yet...she'd not even contacted her insurance company when I recontacted them this morning :o

Son of a bitch! :evil:

Rotten luck, mate. Hope she gets her arse in gear, and you get a decent result.

You should have for the authorities involved as useless as they are, they are quite useful as far as insurance claims go! The ring insurance there and then following each drivers statement/ liability. Keep pestering insurance and bombard them with contact if you feel you have right to claim!? drokk me I'd be going mental if it were mine
