Creaver 55 Report post Posted November 28, 2009 righto, after a bit of a stuff around... It's being repaired. Manual conversion still on the cards (and should get a free polish/buff/wash of the car in the process ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e30ftw 410 Report post Posted November 28, 2009 How much is it costing? Is it coming straight from the other party's insurance? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creaver 55 Report post Posted November 28, 2009 About 5k to repair, they valued it at 7k. Yip, I don't pay a cent, other guys insurance is covering everything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ED1RTY 2 Report post Posted November 30, 2009 sh*t Ian just saw this... Saw a thread about commodores and thought... Meh.. Fail.... Great to see its getting fixed.. Usually if its not your fault they have to pay to get it fixed. I took my E30 to Precision and got 9k worth of repairs.. They used all brand spanking new stuff from BMW Quotes i got from other places were ~4k using 2nd hand parts. I found it funny how the value of car vs repairs didn't affect the insurance co. writing it off Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creaver 55 Report post Posted November 30, 2009 Alex - a place called Wagstaff European in Marua Rd Chris - Yeah, i'm surprised they didnt write it off myself, must've been borderline though?? Auto Precision wouldnt repair/quote due to the insurance co being the AA..... Supposedly they don't pay jack and Precision wouldn't make anything out of the repair.
