Crashed car
« on: 19 March 2006, 07:38 »
Going past a well known shopping centre in Leeds the traffic lights were out so as I'm going past a bus on my right who had let me through an idiot appeared from behind the bus and crashed in to me .Damn.
My car needs £5000 worth of repairs but strangely the insurance company didn't write it off.
My car is a black 2002 golf gti turbo150 bhp with no modifications
The worst bit is I'll be without my car for 4 weeks and have to make do with a French piece of crap
Will post some pictures of my damaged car when I work out how to do it.

I know was really surprised they didn't write it off but glad in a way cause would have lost too much money and also I love my car but £5000 includes labour so hopefully it will be good as new when I get it back well at least drivers side will be. I have got some photos but I don't know how to get them on the forum but will work it out.

ouch that sounds nasty 5k on repairs must be close to write off for that get a double check done as it is so expensive.  to put pics up get a photobucket account www.photobucket.com upload to there than copy the "[img]" link and paste into your post.

Probably got lost in the "Great Crash of 08
