Unbelievable

Another fooking idiot drove into my car on the way home today. What is it, a fooking t**t magnet? fooking morons.

Omg seems like. Myself the only luck ur car is having is 'bad'

Oh no!!! That's bloody rotten bad luck. Hope you're ok

Yeah, just a slightly sore wrist, must've kicked back through my steering wheel when he's rammed my wheel (it's obviously knocked the tracking out of line).

Double claim? double payout?

Joking aside is the second damage too bad?

You might want to consider getting that removed. I'm surprised the cars lasted this long...

I told you no good would come of that new job.

Well, the assessor's been to look at it today and confirmed it will be a write off.

Bad times. Looks like you gunna have to pull bike out for work mate. Atleast its getting abit warmer now.

Not at all, car's perfectly driveable. It's all panel damage, still drives perfectly, and you can't see the damage when you're sat on the comfy leather seats with the climate control and radio on, lol. Commute by bike in winter? fook that, lol, it's enough of a hassle doing it in summer. If they accept the top side of his valuation and let me keep it for 10% of that I'll have no complaints. Looks a bag of shit now, which is a shame, considering how immaculate it was previously, but if I get paid out £1500 and keep the car for £150 then it's been two and a half years of virtually free motoring )apart from fuel and consumables, obviously), same as when i got arse ended in my first Primera. That got written off the same way and I just pocketed the payout (£2400) and kept on driving it until it was ready for the knackers yard with 200 thousand miles on, and sold it for £30. I paid a grand for it (when it was worth 3 grand) and got paid £800 for it when it was written off, so basicallly had a free car for 7 years.

True well i honestly wish u the best of luck with the car mate. Hopefully it wont get hit again

Well they say things come in threes, but I don't know if that includes the time some fool reversed into it on my birthday last January...

Not having much luck are you

No change there then, eh?

Ya never know - the pay out may be better than you might expectAde. I know it won't compensate for all the hassle but knowing you you'll make the most out of what you do get and it could be your next big project

I know someone selling a people carrier?? hehe


Hope your ok chick!! Like shep said - get that magnet taken off, its not good lol xx

Hello stranger, long time no speak, hope you're good. Think I might've seen your sister yesterday.

I may be old, but I'm not ready for a people carrier yet, lol. Or ever, shoot me first. Was thinking of going to look at a car today, but couldn't cos my laptop died, so I couldn't get the details, so I went back to bed instead.

Where abouts did you see her?? I don't blame you with the people carrier, when it was brought round here even The Child said, and I quote "What the hell is that?? I'm not getting in that thing, I'm not a ******" (cant repeat on here lol)
Least the girl has taste haha..


Hope you get sorted out soon, what sort of car you after? I would find it hard if I didn't have access to the car!

Shipley Chavsda, assuming it was her ( I was buying Cider, Mini Eggs and Practical sportsbikes magazine).

I'm not carless (couldn't get to work if I was), I'm still driving mine, it's all bodywork damage (includimg a shortened boot floor though). It was another Primera I was looking at, 2 litre Sport Plus, same a smine, but only 60k miles. Looks good in the pics, looks like there's some wear on the driver's seat, but most have that, I'd just swap my immaculate interior over into the new one. Not sure about the colour though.

gud luck with your seach for another car ade maybe try painting it a fluresent colour so they see you lol

yeah it would of been her. colour shouldn't really matter on a car, you cant see it when ya driving it lol x

Not looking for a replacement, unless something immaculate appears at the right money.

Colour matters. Wouldn't buy a decent car if it was in a shit colour, like brown, gold, yellow, dark green etc. Don't want to drive a turd.

after finding out certain person has been sending pms to another certain person about me supposidly standing in corners slagging people off and it not being true i dont think i want to be part of this forum anymore

Er, I think that may have been posted on the wrong thread? I certainly have no idea what you're on about, and don't see how it's relevant to my bent car, lol.

i didnt know where else to put it so let that be an end to it

Pearl don't let the arguments between some of the folk on the forum upset the relationships YOU have with rest of the peeps here. You're contributions are very much valued and we always enjoy catching up with you and Roadtramp on the rides and meets



Ade - I fully agree about the colour - that's one of the most important things for us wimmin when we're buying our cars or bikes. Though if someone gave me a turd coloured porsche I'd not say no:lol!:





................... I'd take it, and then sell it and buy another Toyota in MY colour hee hee

Pearl, feel free to adopt my motto whenever you wish. Simply put, it's "F*ck 'em!"

Ade, yellow can look good on a 595.
I had a big brown car once though. You could see people gipping as you drove by.

I'd just like to make it clear, since this has bizarelly appeared on my thread, that whatever the issue you're referring to (I have no idea what you're on about) is nothing to do with me, in case anybody thinks that it being strangeley aired here should suggest that it was.

No it can't, lol. Everyone knows yellow ones are slow and gay. You've been on TT long enough to know that, lol.

no its not you ade i just didnt know where to put it not very good with computors

No prob, just didn't want folk thinking it was somehow referring to me.

Ade even if the colour is not right but the condition and price are...

(don't hate me for this) have you thought about car wrapping? in your chosen colour?

Only pain is that if it get scratched got to replace that section...

Have you seen what wraps cost though, lol? I was watching some guys finishing off a wrap on a Range Rover in satin grey some time back, while talking to a guy about having my windows tinted. Bloody amazing really, it looked just like it had been painted, god knows how they get it flat round all the curves etc. If I remember right it had taken about 5 days total and cost about £2000.

I'll keep my eyes open in case the right car appears at the right price, otherwise I'll just keep running the bent one til it drops (it's only done 113k miles, so it's got another 85k left in it, no problem). HArdly sexy, but tbh driving a mechanically sound but cosmetically fooked car is in some ways liberating - you don't have to worry about where you park and who gives a shit if it gets bumped or scratched. I don't really want to drive a shed, and I used to love the car when it was still immaculate and polished to a fine shine every week, but right now I don't really give a shit, there's more important things in life than having a shiny car, and when you don't have those things even a new Aston Martin on the drive isn't going to make life any better. Got the engineers's report in the post yesterday, cat C write off, and he's valued it at £1350 with a £135 buy back cost, so can't really argue with that.
