Last night going home on the M6 and some ****ers engine undertray hits my car. No room to swerve break or avoid it. Gutted, initially it looked like scratched bonnet, wing, and broken mirror.
Today the car was assessed and it's worse, damaged windshield, dented bonnet, dented offside wing, dented offside door, damaged mirror (clean off), and possibly bent blade alloy
What a complete b-gger mate - I do feel for you.
I suppose it all happened to quickly to get his number. ??
It may be worth contacting the local "Old Bill", as there may have been a camera about.
Repairs are looking at over 2k sounds weird but the car might end up being a write off its got 120k fshh & i am gutted it all happened so fast spoke to coppers yesterday after it happened and they are useless!!!
If it ends up being a write off then thank god I have gap insurance..... I work for a PI firm and will be persuing a claim for my shoulder so hey
Nope no chance of the reg.... gap insurance is there to cover the gap brtween what the insurace co pay out and what you paid originally for example insurance pays 5k and you laid 12k the gap insurance will cover the difference
Under trays are more trouble than they're worth, they're held on by the crappiest fixings considering how easily they can be ripped off by road debris, which in turn creates a bigger road hazard.
Main thing is mate your ok, difficult I know seeing your pride and joy damaged like that through no fault of your own. With the payout no doubt another civic you can pride over.
Jesus! I know its still nasty but as long as you still have your life! Things could have been a lot worse if it smashed your windscreen.. I highly doubt thats a write off though
Gutted for you mate! That looks a fair bit of damage, your lucky it didn't smash the windscreen as well. At least you are ok though.
