f*cking brilliant. - declantg - 12-03-2013 So went out to my car this morning and someone ha smashed in the rear quarter. f*cking brilliant. Why is it this happens when you have no money and you got laid off!! What's my best bet? Body is dented into my rear wheel pretty heavy. RE: f*cking brilliant. - Strikeforce - 12-03-2013 Thats bad news mate trust it to be on the bit that cant be changed ![]() RE: f*cking brilliant. - Dum-Dum - 12-03-2013 Dude that sucks, pics of how bad it is? Suppose thats what car insurance is for though. Depending on your insurance company as youve been hit by someone else who has made off you might not have to pay your excess or loose your NCD. RE: f*cking brilliant. - declantg - 12-03-2013 Will get a pic later Don't want to claim as it's going to cost me an arm and a leg on insurance next year ![]() At the point of giving up right now RE: f*cking brilliant. - Dicky - 12-03-2013 Oh dear, that f*cking sucks :/ RE: f*cking brilliant. - Matt - 12-03-2013 Such a shitter man :/ RE: f*cking brilliant. - ozonehostile - 12-03-2013 That's shit news dude, same thing happened to mine hence the mismatch white around the fuel filler cap. Really don't understand why people do it unless you've made an enemy? RE: f*cking brilliant. - declantg - 12-03-2013 I don't even know what to do now. It's ridiculous, the first car I'm actually happy with and it gets hit. Thinking of just bending it out then reshelling into another. And ozone I get on with pretty much everyone RE: f*cking brilliant. - Ben - 12-03-2013 I'd bend it back out (if possible?) so that it's driveable and just carry on driving it until you decide what to do. When you say someones smashed it in do you mean driven into it or hit it with a hammer? RE: f*cking brilliant. - ozonehostile - 12-03-2013 Where do you park? is it a busy route or would the vandals have had to go out of their way to kick your panel in? When it happened to me the car was parked on the mrs drive :/ RE: f*cking brilliant. - declantg - 12-03-2013 It's definitely a car that's hit it, I have white paint on my car. I park on a quite road so it must be a resident it's not a through road RE: f*cking brilliant. - cwspellowe - 12-03-2013 Easy peasy, keep an eye out for any white cars in the street then. If it's damaged the rear quarter badly, chances are you'll find your paint on a white motor. Drop a letter through everyone's letterbox saying you have the details of the car that hit it, and if the owner doesn't come forward you're going to the police. Calling the major bluff but you might get lucky. RE: f*cking brilliant. - ozonehostile - 12-03-2013 Any white cars on your street? RE: f*cking brilliant. - Piggy - 12-03-2013 defo get coppers involved...if theres paint transfer they be interested for sure...if its high rear quarter surely its a large csr too ...like a 4x4?? RE: f*cking brilliant. - declantg - 12-03-2013 No white cars on my road ![]() Worst thing is I heart a smash last night but thought it was me tripping out RE: f*cking brilliant. - Dum-Dum - 12-03-2013 (12-03-2013, 12:41 PM)cwspellowe Wrote: Drop a letter through everyone's letterbox saying you have the details of the car that hit it, and if the owner doesn't come forward you're going to the police. Calling the major bluff but you might get lucky. This, sound really scary, its going to be a resident or a friend/family of a resident so they wont want them to get done. Make sure you point out that you have the make model and reg number of the car and the driver was seen in the car.

If it's a neighbour's friend or relative and you blag that you have the details, you might find they come forward as i'm sure they'd rather settle privately than risk police attention for a hit and run. Conversely it may well be an uninsured driver, in which case you've no chance.

RE: f*cking brilliant. - cwspellowe - 12-03-2013 Something like this should suffice Quote:Dear neighbour, RE: f*cking brilliant. - Oil-burner - 12-03-2013 ^^^ this definately!! RE: f*cking brilliant. - darrenjlobb - 12-03-2013 Sure no one was playing frisbee in the area? On a serious note, that sucks ![]() RE: f*cking brilliant. - declantg - 12-03-2013 Going to wait until this evening when all the cars on my road are parked. Also going to check nearby streets incase they park of the street to lay low. If I find nothing I shall then send out the letters! Thanks Pellowe RE: f*cking brilliant. - bingham123456 - 12-03-2013 This sound about perfect ^^^^ Should help you find out who it is mate RE: f*cking brilliant. - declantg - 12-03-2013 Seriously Darren, how did you not flip out :L I didn't even see it happen and I felt angry! f*cking brilliant. - Parksy87 - 12-03-2013 (12-03-2013, 12:46 PM)Dum-Dum Wrote:(12-03-2013, 12:42 PM)Piggy1987 Wrote: defo get coppers involved...if theres paint transfer they be interested for sure This, they dont give a toss just said ok thank you we'll give you a crime number so you can ring your insurance....

RE: f*cking brilliant. - Connor - 12-03-2013 Phone up some local bodyshops, ask them to keep an eye out for any white cars with your paint over it RE: f*cking brilliant. - Ben - 12-03-2013 You need Sherlock Holmes on the case, he'd know what to do. RE: f*cking brilliant. - declantg - 12-03-2013 Well, given the rear quarter a bit of a bashing to try and sort it. Still dented and scraped pretty deep. Paint is cracked and flaking all over it ![]() |
