You should be able to hire a car and claim it back even if you havent got courtesy car on your insurance policy.

that's that kind of talk that leads to increased insurance premiums for us all. Lets not further develop this countries already overactive claim culture!

Sorry to hear about the car though mate, at least nobody was hurt.

I almost had a crash at a roundabout on the way back from Sainsburys today. I was coming down to the roundabout and there are three lanes. Now we *all* know which lane for straight on dont we. Well there I was in the middle lane and this silly cow in the nearside lane decides to go straight on, straight into my path - silly wh*re. I had to swerve to avoid her, and worst of all the look *I* got was one of FOAD. She still continued with one hand on the wheel and jabbering into her mobile phone in the other. I was almost tempted to force her off the road and teach her how to take a roundabout. Still annoyed now (an hour later)
