One of the best / the best panel beaters in Auckland is precision auto works on Archers Rd Glenfield, its hard to see from the road (but you can see the sign and a big wall) as the have deliberately made it hard to look into because of the number of new ferraris/masssa/astons/lambos in there. Plus they have a hot receptionist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1N STYL 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2005 no all the traffic stopped, and well the merc didn't...don't really know why we stopped, i think maybe for a car to pull out or for one to park, or to let a pedestrian cross. VERY SLOW speed accident, the breaks on these merc arn't what they used to be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
318is 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2005 You do know you ARE IN THE RIGHT. Personally, I would persue the journalist and magazine, report it as a minor accident to the police etc. Nothing for you to be ashamed off or feel you are in the wrong. HE DROVE INTO YOUR ASS. Sorry to hear man - I would be gutted, even though its looks minor. Remember, car sales(persons) realestate agents and journo's are in the same league, scumballs who are after a buck regardless of who they screw over. Protect yourself and do what your have to.

Grant 4 Report post Posted February 16, 2005 I'm sure that he has insurance. These things happen, don't get uptight about it, i'm sure it will be sorted. I can guarantee that before your days are done you will have an accident of some kind (even a minor one) that you cause. sh*t happens, sort it out and move on.
