My scoobys been hurt!!!!!!!
What a day.....!!! and it's only 6.55am
Opened mail this morning and I've been done for speeding in Germany!!!!
Then on the way to work some half awake b@stard drives into the back of the Terzo whilst I'm waiting to pull off at a junction.....
At first it looked like there was no damage apart from some scratches to mine but he's dented the rear pnl behind the bumper....... at least with the boot closed you can't see it..... (I guess the bumber is shot though?)
Not too bad really and quite lucky? I guess
Only problem is that last time some idiot did this type of thing my insurance company put up my premium even though it was a no fault claim!!!!!!!
Anyway, sorry to moan.....
Any good bodyshops?

As a result Im going to use ABW even though it means I have to pay my excess first then claim back .....
BTW, apparently it's the law to report an accident to your insurers even if you don't claim!!!!!! i.e. we could agree not to go through insurance then he reports it and i get done for failing to report?
Anyway whatever happens ABW will look after my car.
Thanks BB

I'm awaiting about 10 more now as I've been caning it for about a month along the Autobahns!!!!!
BTW, Nevetas.... is it worth using my Radar/Laser detector? Strange but i don't remember being gunned and there is no picture? There's loads of camera gantrys but i was told they are tolls?

Cheers Dazza You cheered me up !!!
I'm VERY tempted to bin it but as V2T say's... it's through work and don't want to risk it..... loads of people here have had them, it's just hard trying to find someway to pay it....
Have also been told you can get banned for a few months but choose when to take it?

Yeah the camera looking things are actually for HGV tolls.
Wouldn't worry about a detector, would probably be to late by the time it detected.
Still could be worse!

Utter rubbish but they will charge you none the less. I'm not sure Moley's guys take the same stance, but admiral always did. Sorry you got hit, I saw it the other day on a thread and it looks like a top motor:thumb:
