Absolutly gutted

Goin to mates house to fix computer late yesterday afternoon, as i come round a blind bend there is a man walking down the road towards me with a pram so i instantly braked and swerved as i did the backend went light but by the time i had reacted it was already going down a ditch the car finished up laying on drivers side in ditch. Before anyone says it i was not speeding as the road was slicky the police turned up gave me a breath test which i passed and said that they would not be taking any action. The person with the pram according to a witness who was behind me run off down the road

Just glad i didn't have the other half and baby daughter with me

So thats me done with scooby ownership for a while

I think it's economically dead. Leaving the boot opening exposed in this weather isn't going to improve its chances ? Do they cover them ?

scoobybrad

Really sorry to read this Brad. Always difficult to swallow if it's not your fault. Hope you get it all sorted quickly. Plenty of bargains out there for when you get paid out, it's definately a buyers market at the moment.

scoobybrad

Cheers mate, it's not buyin the car that will be the problem it's gonna be the insurance dnt think anyone will touch me now

BRI4N

Are you with Keith Michaels? If not, give Moley a call, I'm sure he'll be able to help.

Keep me posted as to where the car goes to be assesed as i no alot of people in bodyshops around this area Least then if there is anything u want off the car to sell then we can sort it. Would just be nice to get some extra money out of it! Things like exhuast, interior, engine!! Would happen just after u got it all sorted!

scoobybrad

Ok mate cheers should find out in couple of days where its gone so will let you know. would like to get anti-roll bar droplinks, springs etc off but if i cant then sod it. Yea typical to happen when all is runnin ok

scoobybrad

Na not with them was gonna ring them in march when it was time for my renewal would of had 5 years NCB then so would of been able to protect them but that aint happeing now, Any ideas if i loose all myy NCB or just some of them?

53

iTrader: (41)

NCB's has never been an issue with KM's, the price usually makes them irrelevant tbh.

scoobybrad

So if i managed to get another and ring them the price i get off them would be pretty much the same give or take a bit wether i had ncb or not?

Correct me if im wrong?
