i could do with a fall ,where theres blame theres a claim

zoso11

all u need 2 do is drive down the M62 and let a telegraph pole come of the back of a wagon and let it spin through the air and crash through your window..

Providing you dont die, your well in!

petermintrst

well, first thing i'd do is chuck that guitar out of the window, that might smash someones and they could claim too. lol only kidding, great news that u a have had some luck, so many times claims never get paid, mines ongoing and i doubt i'll get a bean, well maybe a bean but not much cash

twitchyrear

bet that was a heart stoppin few seconds!!!

Come april next year mine will be 4yrs and counting and still not sorted, and cant see it being settled by then

But the final figure will have a few more numbers on when it finally comes thru anyway

But, gonna be sensible and use it as a deposite on a house methinks rather than spunk it on a car, well thats the plan anyway

nice 1 m8,glad 2 c ul b spending it wisely!

Very cool. Looks like an eastwood airline as used and famed by Jack White from the White Stripes. Apparently it wasn't worth very much at first but once he famed them the prices shot up, especially with the rarity as well. He seems to like them because of the raw and bassy sound, similar to why Kurt Cobain played low end guitars.

zoso11

Hahaha.. know nearly as much as me..

Yeah u can get re-issue models of em now for pitence..

They wer origanal about £10 (obviously in dollars) back in the 60's and sold by sears (american argos) but like all good 60's fings, there worth a mint.. sounds betta than ma gibson les paul.. but yeah i got it coz of my obsession wiv the white stripes haha

junkiexr

Insurance is high for me tbh too, but i'm putting my fella on insurance as named driver so hopefully will come down a little bit !


Toe Knee - I had my accident last December and got paid out in September this year, but my claim was straight forward.

Stealth Bomber

Still waiting for my whiplash claim from when some dickhead in a BMW decided to try and drive _through_ my Cossie, like the guy must have been blind!

Anyway I can't wait, and yes big brakes are on the menu

Some good news at xmas!!

How much did you pay for your guitar fella?

Yea its done alot quicker if theres no complications, i was off work 2yrs then spent a year re-training in a different industry so im claiming loss of earning aswell as injury. Was offered 2500 first, then 7500 second time round, but now its all set towards going to court and once they see i aint gonna back out they'll realise im not fookin about, normally most will wait untill just before the court date and make a last offer so, they just need to hurry the fook up

junkiexr

i get it all the time mate ,my fez is a 1.0pop+ base model with all the xr2 running gear in so it surprises people a lot more haha
feels good when you get a caxo up nxt to you at the lights and they laugh ,
they aint laughing when i'm looking at em in the rear view though lol

zoso11

Sticker Paul No more tax disc dodging for me haha!
