adam_r Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Well, heading in to work today to grab a couple of bits as i was not in yesterday as i was ill. Just going around the roundabout outside of my work and a van desides to cut his lane (outside lane) and venture in to my lane (inside lane). Needless to say White van + black accord = damage... Unfortunately since it was a roundabout it will go 50/50 if i go through insurance, so im digging in to my own pocket for the repair to my car. and he will fix the few scratches he got to his bumper. better than losing my NCB for a few hundred quid. here are the pics.. have been quoted £400 to get the dents pushed out and the 2 doors reprayed and feathered in by a very good local company with use of a company car. Its slightly annoying as i wanted to give the car a good clean and wax tomorrow ready for winter . BAH HUMBUG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 That's a bugger mate but at least you're ok and the damage isn't too bad. I had the same done to me years ago, a van driver was reading a map and swerved into my lane forcing me up the kerb and into railings!!

Tony Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Oh bollox what a shame...... Still what's done is done and you seem to have a good attitude about it despite it wasn't your fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam_r Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 well got the car booked for an MOT tomorrow morning, should pass but have a feeling they may pull me up on low brake pads on the front, which i was going to do today but lacked enthusiasm when looking at the car. Also got her booked in for wednesday at the body shop.. they say it should be done by friday which is good why is it Cars are so expensive to fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
