NOT A GOOD DAY now with pics

[chunkys mk1]

got a phone call today from the wife telling me to get home as soon as i can when i did she told me someone had it my mk1

how can this be i thought as its in the garage so i went round there and to my horror some banger racing twat had let his 10 year old girl drive the car which she lost control of (what a suprise)and smashed striaght into my garage pushing the door into the car and the car out the back of the garage what a great day

now waiting on the insurance hopefully they let me keep it and fix it

[petrolhead]

unbelievable, i hope heads roll. Sounds like Social Services need to get involved too.

 

sorry to hear that, is the damage repairable?

[chunkys mk1]

from what i can see front panel,both front wings ,rear panel,slam panel are the main bits any idea who are best to use for panels if i repair it

[Yeomans22]

m8, that sounds like alot of damage, do not accept the car back from the insurance until, it is exactly mint again,

 

and the father should be reported for that,

 

if it a write off, then buy it back from the insurance and fix it up.

Thats terrible you must be proper gutted and more than a bit p****d off.I know i would be.

Hope it works out ok for you in the end.

[RossMK2]

You muct be as gutted as can be im sure you'll be able to sort something

[bigglesmk2]

How fast could she have gone to do that

[mk14dr]

Gutted.

 

Don't, whatever you do, let the Insurance company take the car, and don't be bullied into using their bodyshop.

You pay the premiums, you decide who does the work. Don't let them write it off either, everything is negotiable

[FredTransit]

like mk14dr said DO NOT LET THE INSURANCE CO TAKE THE CAR! You won't see it again. Gutted for you mate.

[tom28]

man im gutted for ya how can the father let her do it? and why don't they hang people these days?..

[marky4]

gutted for you mate some people are unbelievable

[Messenjah]

because the accident wqs not your fault you have the right to have the car repaired to its pre accident condition regardless of cost !

 

get quotes from the ford dealers aswell as your prefered bodyshop including the cost of getting the car there and back mitchvilles do very good work .... speak to them.

[Mk 1 Mark]

Gutted for you, your mind should be @ rest when your car is in your own garage...

Then this happens......hope you get it sorted

[over_head_cam]

Like everyone said, gutted for you mate. Some pricks shouldn't be allowed to breed eh

[Lotus 300e]

Sorry to hear about it, ain't nothing safe in a garage nowadays.

[herb capri]

proper idiot.was he appologising or laughing?

as has been said, don't worry, as the insurance should fix it, and if anyone says " the garages arnt on the road" dosnt matter, any place that has public access is classed as a road, hence why you cant let an un-insured driver try driving a car in a carpark.

 

And again, and I hope this is not the case you have, but 'cheap' insurance isnt always the best, there are companies out there that have a proven tack record of sorting cars, and fighting for you.

And there are some that just write them off.
