Once again thanks to all for the supportive posts, working through giving rep but can only give out about 3/4 per day for some reason:) Am thinking about maybe going down on Wednesday to see what i can take from it and probably get a couple of pics. Will see once i speak to the company that has it tomorrow and find out what the script with it is. Not 100% sure how this all works as never had an own fault accident, never mind a write off accident before so this is all new to me now.

Good luck with it mate, hopefully all will be well and you will end up happy with whatever you get out of it.

Really Gutted for you, Main thing as everyone else says is your ok.

Suspect its hard to see your pride and joy all bashed up, but if its got a lot of goodies on it, think I would buy it back from the insurance company.

Know youve got to have somewhere to store it, plus the cost of moving it, but if you sell off, or keep the bits and swap on to another car could be most cost effective.

Think if its an own fault accident you will have to pay the ins excess, and hope you have protected no claims, so that next time you have to insure you keep the years you have.

You sure there hadnt been an oil/petrol spillage on the corner, specially as the other car came off at the same place. Just seems a bit of a coincidence!!!


Hope your getting over it OK.

:yes::yes::yes::yes:

What exact;y had you done to the car that makes it so special. a lot of people on here seem to think you should buy it back from the insurance, and if you're getting another ZS seems to make sence if you've spent money on it. is there a thread somewhere showing your mod's history or out like that?

Sorry for your loss by the way.

The car is yours, so you're legally entitled to claim back any modifications you've made to it which have been declared mate. I was reading up on it somewhere but can't recall where.

It was just a very well looked after, and from what I gather, cared for Zed and kept in good condition :)

Because it was one of the best examples of a zed that I have seen

Nowt that special, just had it pretty much the way I wanted it:)


Looks like nowts going to happen as bodyshop say unless it is personal belongings then i cannot ermove anything. Will speak to the insurers tomorrow to get their side. Been officially written off now too, total loss cat B said the message on my phone:(

Gutting Gary. Just a case of finding out price insurers will sell it back to you for, and then finding out how much it'd cost you to repair, then doing the sums as to whether it's worth it. What's damaged on the car? Just the bodywork, or are the chasis/wheels/engine fecked too?

Maybe it's a good chance for a new start though. There are plenty of bargain Zeds out there.
