Rachels car got hit in her car park by some dappy woman.
Rachel found the woman, get her insurance details and rang her insurance company who then picked her car up THAT day, took it to the bodyshop, Rachel got a courtsey car straight away.
Rachel gave her insurance company all the womans details, and they chased them for the money etc and Rachel get her car back about a week later.
She had to fill in loads of forms etc but she never lost her NCB or anything and her insurance company (Diamond) sorted it really quick.
Was mazin.

The problem with this guy is that it was a company car, I know his company details - but don't know who their insurer is and the guy was supposed to ring me and tell me today.
I phoned my insurance today and they've put my details through to a company called Angel (something) - as Non Fault claim... and they're gonna contact me and sort it out!
I said about the curtousy car and they said if the other insurance company accepts the blame (so if they ring him up and he says yes I'm to fault) - then I'll get a curtosy car imediately!
Though because it's a company car, who knows about the amount of hassel there will be.
Took it to a garage today and got a estimate that the cosmetic stuff alone would be over a grand - not totally sure whether the suspension is ok or not - drives semi ok, though to me it feels the tracking is definately out - my dad says I'm imagining it.
It was scary avoiding police cars with no front bumper on the car to get it over there and back.
Bugger that its good friday / easter weekend and monday means it'll be a while to get sorted.

Really? but won't I have to say I've had a accident or claim in the last five years?
This car is cursed with bad luck - The previous owners mum said 'Good luck' as I drove it off... Now I see why. Bloody Evo's and people forcing you off road - this car has not been fun and only 16.1 down quarter mile - Piece of shit
Did I not try and warn you off buying one of these?
Anyway I hope you get it all sorted out mate, finding a new gti/quicksilver front bumper is going to be a bastard though
and 16.1 is shoot

16.1 is completely standard. With pugsport exhaust and induction kit I should be well in the 15's.

nope lol - the clutch is gay on this car. Corsa you can litterally blip the clutch to change gear. 106 has to go to the floor and back up - plus the gearbox is impossible to get the gears in half the time ...
