Yep- told him that today....

Just for the people who havent sussed it- yes the car will repair it is only a wing, bumper, wheel (scuffed in the accident) and indicator and maybe a bit of a straighten up but if an approved insurance body shop cannot get the genuine parts brand new the car is likely to be written off.


Shame as the car is straight as an arrow otherwise with original wings etc- its my old car.

If they did say they are going to write it off, then don't let them, agree a price between you and they basically pay you that and you get it repaired.

My sister had it a few years back, they just agreed to give her 1k and she could choose to either scrap it or get it repaired, but never went on the hit list.

Twells,

We do insurance body work, so if you need us to quote on your damage and send in to the other party's insurance I'm happy to do that. If you're claiming on your own insurance, again thats no problem either.

Give us a call if you need any help.

Yep still available from Ford iirc around £60. Personally ill go though the other guys insurance and get paid out for the damages. Doubt it they'll write it off. They'll offer to repair it for you or pay out the repair costs which ill take of them as it'll be a top amount and as you can get good condition used parts pretty easily and with a decent body shop it can be sorted out pretty much spot on leaving you with some pocket money.

Nothing to worry about really and truly though i know what it feels like and i would've still been gutted meself but shit happens. Could've been a lot worse.

Am sure the repair costs have to be like more then about 66% of what the car is worth for it to be written off. Say about 5k for the car so around 3k+ for parts and labour would deem it as a Write Off But then again if all the parts are not available brand new from Ford could still be deemed as a Write Off

Not sure meself but either way best of luck hope u can get it sorted and come to the rolling road meet
