  • So my car isn't doing too well at the moment...

    So after a little unwanted contact from some idiot in a Hyundai Getz yesterday, Kevin was loaded onto the back of a truck this morning. Thankfully the third parties' insurance have admitted full liability.

    Was told I was getting a nice little Fiesta as my courtesy car, a 1l petrol Yaris arrived.....

    But anyway, everyone was ok and my car should reach the repair shop this evening (I'm currently 270 miles away from home with work!). Who knows how long I'll be without Kevin for, shall have to wait and see!

    Saw this on Instagram, bad times! Glad you're ok, hopefully it's all cosmetic and won't take too long to fix

      Hopefully As Joni said, it's plastic and looks a lot worse than it is! However, the chap who collected reckons there could be some chassis damage :/

      The hotel I'm staying in is next to a Citroen showroom, so I went and had a look at a Techno with the pretty new lights to cheer myself up!!

        I've not seen the new lights in the flesh yet, looking forward to seeing them at John Grose on the 10th.

        At least the other party has admitted full liability, that's half the battle nowadays. I had someone hit me and ride off in my previous DS3 and I'm still paying for it with increased insurance premiums / excess etc.

            The indicators are so cool!!!

            Well me and the girl were both approaching a cross roads, my intention was to continue over the cross roads and she wanted to turn right, except she 'didnt see me' and just darted across in front. Boom. T-Boned!

                Never trust Hyundai Git drivers, hope Kevin feels better and is up and running around soon.

                    Yep, I had excess protection so should have that paid back soon but it counts as a 'fault claim' according to most insurers so it's doubled my insurance this year. Just an extra expense I don't need
