Sorry to hear your news Sandsy.
Regarding getting another car, it was actually my losss adjustor that said 'don't let them put you off getting what you want' - but then he might have just been after more business
I was quite pleased I met him in person, it felt like a grilling but like to think we had a bit of rapport which helped in the end.
I was second owner and my car was about 10 months old but I was lucky enough to get back what I had paid for it. Got a new car by doing a Carwow price match deal on pCp with the deposit contribution which I then paid back in the 14 days with my insurance money. I was lucky enough also to have 28 days car rental for theft on my insurance, some policies have a lot less.
I do worry now and have beefed up security, can't garage, and although new locks fitted still no deterrent against the 'key' they used last time, a bloody big coping stone!
In my area recently -
a Gti stolen by 4 on the doorstep with knives
a 62 plate Beetle taken after house break in
an attempt to steal car keys after brick through patio door at 4.30 pm.
My biggest wish would be to discover more detail about how/why the crimes are committed. It's a shame the police don't or can't share any information they glean, assuming they get anything much of course.
Hope you get a good result with insurance company etc.
