[BUCKYDEVIL]

OHHH No Andy,,,, So sorry for ya mate... you ok ?

[andys1981]

aye am fine just broken hearted,it was kel last nite,she was reversing,and her foot slipped off the clutch,and went via a pole

[BUCKYDEVIL]

Dont know what to say to ya Andy, I know how I would feel if it was me..
Hope Kel is OK ? She must be feeling terrible just now .

[Ritchy]

oh no! gutted for ye bud! at least everyones alright bar the car, there really soft at the back end:(

[andys1981]

shes ok mate,a cant stop looking at it,just glad shes ok,she was pretty shaken,still a bit quiet,hope its no a write off,but its no looking promising

[Ritchy]

i think it will be writeoff unfrotunatly mat:( the wings are on ebay but a lot of money best just buying another one and swapping all the bits onto it

[andys1981]

oh no! gutted for ye bud! at least everyones alright bar the car, there really soft at the back end:(

yeah ave noticed ritchy,either be tonight or tomorrow it goes for its check

[BUCKYDEVIL]

Write off for damage could be very likely, but you could buy it back.

[andys1981]

i think it will be writeoff unfrotunatly mat:( the wings are on ebay but a lot of money best just buying another one and swapping all the bits onto it

yeah thats what a was thinking too,if it is a wont even get a courtesy car,bollocks like

[BUCKYDEVIL]

Whats the full damage as far as you can tell ?

[andys1981]

Write off for damage could be very likely, but you could buy it back.

need to have money first mate lol

[andys1981]

no sure mate,theres just a wee dent in the after the bumper at the spare wheel part but theres a crease on the back wing at bottom of windscreen,thats whats making me think shes a goner eh

[Ritchy]

theyll just take the money off your settlement fee, which will be like ?300 theyll probably sell you it for, so theyll take 300 off the grand n a bit youll probably get back, get an unmoested one at a 52 53 plater under a grand easily, swap all the bits over you want grills ect, sell all the other bits breaking, then get ?60 or so for weighing it in, you probably wont end up out of pocket out of it, maybe insurance will go up slightly next year but these things happen unfortunatly:(

[Bobdope2002]

gutted man the ZS rear end is proper crap

One lesson dont let women drive 180's :p

Nah seriously hope shes ok mate

[Ritchy]

well you could fix it, but would it ever be right thats what you have to ask yourself, front end id probably fix but thats like pretty envolved welding cutting matching there, need new rear quater, new floor bootlid, bumper plus painting and labour itll be like ?4000, ?5000 a an insurance workshop, could get it done for less but still well over a grand

theyre cheap to pick up just now so just think every cloud has a silver lining and make sure you get good money for it because you just had the engine overhauled didnt you;)

am trying ritchy but,just canny snap out it eh,ave no done anything recently to the engine bud

[Ritchy]

if you tell them the car was in good working order, everything perfect before the accident ect youl get more money out them, can always say your not happy with there offer make sure you search piston heads ebay ect show them adverts that have a good price for them at the same age

i know how gutted you are mate i front ended mine not that badly into a vectra, needed new bumper crash bar headlights ect was absolutely fuming,

[andys1981]

yeah the car was fine been a great servant,aww am so gutted,unbeleavable,a will do ritchy thanks for the info mate,appreciate it

[andys1981]

[Ritchy]

good luck car

[Stephen]

Aww sorry to hear mate! Just after seeing it look soo good on thursday!

Hope it works out for the best!

[andys1981]

Aww sorry to hear mate! Just after seeing it look soo good on thursday!

Hope it works out for the best!

me too mate!

[Craig]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! It looks fcuked mate. With the previous history I think its a 100% write off. Buy it back and strip it. The engined gotta be worth a fair bit considering the belts were done

[ThumpJunkie]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck :(

[bmm87]

i've got some blue t-cut if its any use?!

[andys1981]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! It looks fcuked mate. With the previous history I think its a 100% write off. Buy it back and strip it. The engined gotta be worth a fair bit considering the belts were done

yeah thats what am thinking anaw bud

[Steves Cleenz]

BUY IT BACK!! dont accept the first offer they give you, make sure they know about all the extra's the car has, (sunroof on mine got an extra ?200 lol) as it adds value, that will get wrote off, but looking at the photos that will be a pretty straight forward fix, new rear panel is only ?180, the dent in the rear quarter will pretty much go when you take the rear panel off as they are soft as **** lol, the dent in my rear quarter pretty much went and that was just from pulling by hand when the rear panel was off, mine was a harder smack that that aswell as i had no door gap, i reckon if you took the bumper off then you could kick the rear panel straight again, they are that soft, if not then you could get a scissor jack in ther and push it out, you will be suprised at how quick that would go right again, but i would buy it back and repair it and then just drive it untill it dies, you got to think you have had all the belts done (makes sure the insurance know about this and the cost ) so its going to last another 90k, the way i look at my car now is that it owes me sweet FA

[Craig]

I could fone the garage that did the belts mate. If you need proof.

[MG6Turbo]

Do what Steve Cleenz said.

I helped Steve after his car got hit, and got him a courteousy car and he and his family got some decent compo.

If they do think about repairing it, feel free to give the bodyshop my number, as we can supply the parts to fix NEW !

thanks mate thats good to know

[andys1981]

if i need to mate,that would be great,ave never had to make a claim,so am pretty clueless wi all this eh,am dreading the phone call,but gotta get on with it eh!

[stamford]

Oh ****, good job she's okay, but sickenng all the same. One reason why the wife is not a named driver on my policy!

[ThumpJunkie]

Hope it gets sorted Andy, looking doubtful for SMC regardless :(

[Alan.F]

sorry to see this m8 know how you are feeling right now with my car suffering a similar thing a ew weeks ago but i dont wish to put a downer on it but mine was made a CAT B which means you cannot buy it back unless you have a breakers licence. Damage was priced at ?4500

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b259/FatGit/My%20Cars/IMG_1629.jpg

[Maxfly]

**** nooo, gutted for ye Andy min :( hopefully you can maybe get her fixed up, don't look quite as sever as yours Alan, so there is hope!!

[KevG]

Oh Feck Andy, Dont be to hard on Kel, things happen!

If your insurance do offer the chance to buy it back then do so:


Fix it
Break It
Track It

[peterzs]

Sorry to see the car bashed up, think I would buy a bunch of flowers and tell Kel not to worry, not her fault and I bet she is more gutted than you.

Hope you can sort it and it can get back on the road.

[ljr09]

Gutted for you also !!!! but at least your other half is ok thats the most important thing

[andys1981]

got a phone call this morning,shes a goner,there saying 3500 worth of damage,didny think it was that bad,phoned to see about buying it back should find out tomorrow at 2pm

[Jay-ZS+]

What did they value the car at? Hope it all works out for you :)

[grimmy]

No way Andy thats a sickener,the car was looking really good as well

[stamford]

I'd hazard a guess @ ?3500 that it is a breaker only, so no buy back allowed unless you are a registered breaker.

[nath86]

Gutted for you!!! make sure your ins dont take the pi** and offer you a low offer, glad ya missis is ok and thats the main thing, a bit of metal can be replaced at the end of the day! hope all goes smoothly for you, best wishes :)

[andys1981]

What did they value the car at? Hope it all works out for you :)

dunno yet mate ave never made a claim before so will find out more tomorrow

[andys1981]

I'd hazard a guess @ ?3500 that it is a breaker only, so no buy back allowed unless you are a registered breaker.

well the guy from ins said there no really keen on that but a will see what my options are

[BUCKYDEVIL]

Sorry to read she's a goner.
Started to look real nice too.

[Ritchy]

is cat b not theres something seriosly wrong with the car, its a shame mate what you going to buy now?

[Craig]

Thats bad news mate! I hope your excess aint too bad or you might end up with not very much payout considering it was a cat c before I got it.

[andys1981]

Thats bad news mate! I hope your excess aint too bad or you might end up with not very much payout considering it was a cat c before I got it.

they said id only pay an excess if it was getting sorted,as a say dont ken much till tomorrow another sleepless night

[Craig]

they said id only pay an excess if it was getting sorted,as a say dont ken much till tomorrow another sleepless night

Ah, I have never had to claim either mate so I dont know the ins and outs. Fingers crossed for you matey.

[Alan.F]

they said id only pay an excess if it was getting sorted,as a say dont ken much till tomorrow another sleepless night

my insurance company made me pay the excess as there was noone to claim off

[MG6Turbo]

Your excess has to be paid whether the cars repaired or written off.. Thats what it is there for.

The excess can be claimed back if you have had to pay it through no fault of your own.

Since your misses crashed the car, it means the excess will be deducted from the pre accident value of the car.

I would seriously opt for buying it back.

So if your car was valued at ?3000.00, you would get back ?2500.00 if your excess was ?500.00

George

[Nor]

Gutted Andy :(

[scottforsyth]

andy realy sorry to see this bud good she is ok but bad news for ur baby realy do hope all works out for u bud

[Phate]

Buy the bloody thing back! I made pretty much all the money I'd spent on parts back by breaking it!

[Alan.F]

Buy the bloody thing back! I made pretty much all the money I'd spent on parts back by breaking it!

if its cat B he can't m8 thats what gutted me about mine

[andys1981]

right guys heres the deal,as it was a cat c write off there only,offering me 895,minus my excess of 200,minus rest of payments 275.01,leaves 419.19,minus buying her back,89.50,need to get her trailered to my house tho put her on the drive,i can put her back on the road,but need a new mot vic check,i will get 330 plus my car back honest opinions guys,cheers,i will phone them back when ave got enough replys,let me know if its worth trying to fix,or break,dont really wanna break it tho

[Craig]

Firstly refuse the offer. Its pretty ****. Whatever happens, buy it back, you cant lose on it. Engines gotta be worth 500 minimum, spoiler at least 200, then interior etc you could have more than a grand in bits mate.

In all honesty I thought It was probs worth a grand as a whole car seeing it was already a cat c before I got it.

yeah there hitting me with they cant see any around my area with cat c damage to reflect the price tho,just want her back lol

[Craig]

Thats their tuff ****. You have to refuse the 1st offer. It was worth more than 900 quid pre accident. I always said the car was worth more in parts.

[Maxfly]

Got to agree wi craig, get that first offer tae ****:) seems to be a common ploy by insurers to make the first offer as low as possible in the hope that it's just taken!!

Then decide if you want to fix up the old girl or break her for bits. As said breaking will net you a better return but if you want to fix her up nowt wrong with that either:)

[Craig]

Also, get the plate off it. Its worth 400 quid mate

[Phate]

Refuse that offer!

It's worth 2.5k atleast. Give them a list of things you have done to it to help push this, plus send them adverts to similar cars for that sort of money. :)

[stamford]

Most companies don't go into 1st offers anymore, it's a case of take it or leave it these days. No harm in trying though, but as it is already a cat c then this may harm the real valuation. Break it, as long as you have the time and the room to do so.

[andys1981]

Also, get the plate off it. Its worth 400 quid mate

reg transfers are selling it for 995 mate

[andys1981]

tbh a dont think they will go much higher plus a need another car,and a trailer to bring her back,home as a cant drive it with nae ins,al just park it up the drive thats only 3 wks old,dont know what to do,if i refuse the first offer,it may take a while,is there a kinda time limit,eg my cars in stirling,will i get charged storage or that

[Maxfly]

I think they will come back to ye pretty quick as they will want things done an dusted as much as you mate:) Not sure on the storage question mind you.....

At least you can christen the drive with something i suppose, an gives you space to strip her doon:)

[ljr09]

Insurers only pay out a standard book price on vehicles unless you as the customer can prove your vehicle warrants more, if you provide numerous photos of both interior and exterior showing how clean the car was they will have to up their offer in order for you to be able to purchase a vehicle in similar condition - i had an audi a6 some yrs ago and received an appalling first offer but i provided photos showing the immaculate condition and then received an increase of ?900 to enable me to buy like for like, so its def worth pressing for an increase, also details of work done / recent receipts helps too - good luck

[Steves Cleenz]

you dont need to MOT or VIC check it if you kept the V5 ;), mine had just passed the MOT when mine got hit, and i never MOT'd again untill it was due again, didnt have a problem with taxing it either, mine is still on the register of needing a VIC check but doesnt affect me as i still have the V5

[andys1981]

you sure about that steve yeah as i still have the v5,had to tell them ref nos etc off the v5 but,could i get away with doing that

[andys1981]

well they aint budging on the price guys looks like am fooked on this one,get ma car back tomorrow at 2pm,and i will get 330 off ma insurance,been a tough week to say the least

[Maxfly]

ach, shiter mate :(

what's yer plans now wi getting a replacement motor??

[Craig]

well they aint budging on the price guys looks like am fooked on this one,get ma car back tomorrow at 2pm,and i will get 330 off ma insurance,been a tough week to say the least

Bad times mate! Look on the bright side though, you will make a **** load back on the parts.

rough guess

engine - 500
spoiler - 200
interior - 150
wheels - 200
headlights - 50
grill - 50
brakes - 100
pannels - 200?


Thats nearly 1500 and theres more to sell, add the plate and your more than 2000

[andys1981]

ach, shiter mate :(

what's yer plans now wi getting a replacement motor??

ave nae money to fork out for another car the now,mate fookin brutal

[Ritchy]

you could probably straighten that...

[andys1981]

you could probably straighten that...

better springs to mind a aint givin up on her just yet

[Ritchy]

portapower or a bit of straingtening with a mallet and get dents away on the wing dent

[Maxfly]

have a look at the threads steve has put up on the forums from when he repaired the same damage to his typhoon 180 bud, hints and tips there. Help you de3cide if you gonna rescure the old girl:) Have to say it would be a shame to see her go but the choice is yours :)

[Ritchy]

well the rear panel is very soft so think it would straighten okay actually, take the lights out see how it looks

[andys1981]

kels off tomorrow and mon ,am only working tomorrow nite so al get in aboot it,take some frustration oot lol

[andys1981]

canny mate am gonna do everything a can to save her lol

[Steves Cleenz]

hire a porta power, makes it so much easier, if you can, make a brace that goes across the strut mounts or what ever you push off gets dented (did on mine lol) i was pushing off the bit under the rear shelf, or if the porta power comes with the clamps, then clamp it from where the bumper attaches with the plastic clips, chain it to a tre and drive off slowly, you will be suprised at how soft the backend is, but always start from where the main impact was, and if pushing with the porta power go about an inch and half further than what it suppose to be, as once you take the porta power off then the metal will spring back, shame you dont live closer as i would give you a hand and get get hold of a porta power


EDIT****

looking at the photo again you will probally be better off pulling it rather than pushing it, even if you can weld a bolt on to pull off will be good

[andys1981]

how much is it to hire one of these portapower things,just get them from a local hss store or that

[Steves Cleenz]

local hire shop should do them, as for price, i dont know

[andys1981]

[Ritchy]

the slabs make an excellent replacement spoiler


looks good apart from the lid youd never know really

[stamford]

Have the creases moved at all on the rear quarters? What about the door shut gap? Looks like it could go the same way as Steve's did, very well! :thumbsup:

[Jay-ZS+]

Think I prefer the extreme spoiler to the paving!! Doesnt look too bad, looks fixable. New boot lid and bumper and your half way there!

[andys1981]

just a temp fix,till a get a boot lid,aye am quite chuffed how it went tbh

[andys1981]

Have the creases moved at all on the rear quarters? What about the door shut gap? Looks like it could go the same way as Steve's did, very well! :thumbsup:

[andys1981]

[andys1981]

BRAND NEW again! easy peasy aint it lol

[Steves Cleenz]

[Maxfly]

Excellent stuff Andy!! Looking good:D Only thing i think you may have to play about with a bit more is the seam for the boot seal to sit on as think it will probably leak the way it is the noo:) But good on ye and nae hanging aboot either lol:D Think you might be able to make scots modded now?? :)

[andys1981]
