Offer to settle for cash to save his no claims bonus and use the money to buy an ED30 rear valance to replace it with.

Oh no....

Not another ED30. I think I have to go with Hurdy on this one. Its a conspiracy. VW needs to reduce the number to 1500 to please the public. So they attempting to take the cars off the road.  :undecided: :undecided: :undecided:

Thats terrible. What colour is yours?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh

I don't think I can take this any more.

Thing is - they all appear to be rear end shunts! Is there a big magnet on the back of the GTi that pulls cars towards it or something??

I was expecting the car to be a magnet, but of a different variety!

Know how you feel - well I think I do... though you seem to be taking it quite well.  I was hopping mad although the damage to my rear bumper was more than yours.  Still, even if I had a little scratch on mine I'd want it sorted let alone an indentation.  Go easy on the guy though - you don't want to give him a heartattack.  :rolleyes:

I can imagine people looking to buy an  Ed30 years from now asking, is yours one of those that was hit in the VW Ed30 Purge of 2007/8?

Tough luck mate - make sure it is properly fixed/repaired now or else you will regret it later. New parts rather than a bodge job which may invalidate your VW warranty in future.
