Default Oh Dear!



How lucky was I! That was thanks to a Volvo Articulated lorry on the M25!

Now, my excess is 750.00 - that's going to cost no more that 100.00 right?

No lost paint either... lucky me or what! Made me slide right and left - quite exciting really

Its a good job you were not hurt, and a good job its just a dent master plunger job. Could have been worse!

Yes, could have been worse, but moreso, could have been a lot more boring After a slide right and left I was feeling the time was right to get booked in for a track day

Of course, I've been told the point isn't to be left in the gravel but after that who cares, it was great fun

If it was the lorries fault then it shouldn't cost you a thing, It should be done on his/hers insurance?

doesn't matter what he thinks it's up to the insurance company to decide who's at fault.

good job you're not hurt. you could always get the dent pulled out and then stick some more pink stickers over it

Update, albeit nigh on a year later! Between the two insurers they have admitted joint liability. Good news for me in a way and will shut that Hovis driver up a goodun. Also, financially, if I do approach the 3rd party for repair costs they'll have to pay half - can you believe that I still haven't had it looked at for repair yet though!

Why not? It's a small job at best, or were you waiting for a few more?

no chance at all!!


mine was exactly the same


the rear light inner section prevents it from coming out properlly, i tried a dent master bloke who i know as well and he turned it down

what i did, was smash the dent back out by hand with a hammer, then skim and repaint
