My case for unluckiest driver of the year...

What a tool.

That wont be cheap to repair. Propper job with colour blend on the bumper and full relacquer. Panel beat that quarter and blend colour onto the door and refurb the wheel.
Thats £500 minimum.

Iv referred a fair few larger repairs jobs to Jackson coachworks in l'borough. Good sprayers there.

How can people say they didn't realise they hit you.

If anyone's been in an accident, it's BLOODY LOUD!

Even some Bumping there door into yours when opening is stupidly loud when your sat in it.

You're right, it was really loud and I had music on at a decent volume!! She damn well knew she'd hit me because she pulled over, watched me get out of my car from perhaps 30m away and then drove off. But then when I got behind her at the traffic lights a mile or so away and was blasting the horn, they pulled over - why would you do that if you didn't know what it was about. If someone randomly chased me like that I would be scared and probably just drive to the nearest Police station. And the biggest part of all, if she really thought she hadn't hit me, why offer to pay?! It's infuriating!

F*ckem, report them to your insurance and take it from there. They have got no insurance, so shouldn't be on the road. Report them to the cops when you're told that they have no insurance etc.

It is the only way they will learn.

Thanks for all the kind comments and advice everyone. I will no doubt know more about what will happen this week so will update this in case anyone is interested on the outcome.

Well got a quote for the repair this morning.... £2,250. They want to replace part of the rear quarter because they know its been worked on before. Not that this will surprise anyone, but the Kia driver isn't answering her phone so I can give her the good news of the 'cheap' repair! Think my insurance are going to have to deal with this. Sad that I didn't get hit by an honest person like back in January - that one even admitted fault at the scene and although it dragged on a bit in terms of the repair, she did keep to her word and take responsibility.

Thats ridiculously expensive for that repair. But i suppose the cost of the new metal from audi will be a massive part of the price.

Would've thought pattern parts would be available, given that its German.
