After almost a year of nice, reliable driving, my poor old 407 got smacked by a silly bint in an Audi that wanted the whole road. If you're sensitive to the "C" word, mute the sound.

Appropriate language for the situation IMO.

Insurance deemed it non fault on my behalf, and because the foglight lens was broken (I may have neglected to mention it's been like that since I bought the car ), they told me it was unroadworthy, and furnished me with a hire vehicle - a quite nice 2.0 CDTi Vauxhall Insignia with many toys and a surprisingly pokey engine! I wasn't keen when they told me it would be an Insignia, but I'm actually finding it quite good fun, and will actually resent having to give it back!
Anyway, I get the hire car for free, my car repaired, and don't even have to pay the excess. Win.
