Oh no that sucks mate! what a plonker that guy is!
By the looks of the photos, subframe looks ok, wheel seems to be inline, but get it checked.
Still good luck with everything mate

[tedmcedd]

it doesnt feel the same on corners anymore... the passenger side wheel seems to stick out more... its odd...

gonna have to see what the guys insurance says... ill be gutted if they write him off... if i can take all my bits with me i dont think it would be so bad... but if they say write off and i cant have my engine, brakes, wheels and interior ill be so cross...

waiting game now... tisk...

Oh mate, i cant imagine how i would feel if they say write off!
Im scared as the cost of my engine re-build and new brakes is easily worth way over the agreed value on the car, will you be able to take your rally accessories with you? and that luurrvly dashboard!

nice to see you're concerned....

i believe I have not crashed this time... someone has hit me...

he rang me this evening, after i stressed the fact i was worried i wouldn't be able to have my parts if it was written off, he assured me that his company would let me keep my car if it was written off!

so it looks like it going through insurance!

Yer hope for speed, as this kinda stuff can take ages! just received an interim payment for something that happened in June, so i hope the insurance are quicker than ours!

i spoke to my insurance today, they are gonna try their best to make sure he is not written off! yey! so its all go go go!

im gonna try get a full respray out of it too... lol!

[Saxo-Fiesta-Mini]

do you have an agreed value with the insurer then surely they will sell you the car back and you get the value of the car then you can either reshell or repair lol

[Deathrow]

Only just seen this.

Bad times Ed. I hope they don't write him off and I hope in the end you come out better off .

cheers man...

if they do write him off, ill buy another mini and keep the bean to repair when i have more money, then i would sell the one i bought and use the bean again... although i am tempted for a reshell... get him spotless...
