Maybe if its for mine, you might be able to make one "dissapear" for a small price.
OP; Car looks sweet that low, not sure on the two tone paint job, and the camber is just ridiculous.
Stay safe.

#27: Re: death of my pug :( Author: oldbanger2, Location: m1/m18Posted: Sun Apr 10, 2011 1:29 am ---- at least 2000 for wiplash.. insurance will probably give a good price for your mashed up motor..
#28: Re: death of my pug :( Author: Gems, Location: OxfordPosted: Sun Apr 10, 2011 3:47 am ---- Ah no hun!! Really sorry to hear that! Lucky you weren't badly hurt.
#29: Re: death of my pug :( Author: Jamie1337, Location: Dorchester, DorsetPosted: Sun Apr 10, 2011 4:20 am ---- Sad to see On the bright side you've came away from that not too badly scathed. Van drivers are generally pricks and why they have such a bad rep, for things like this! Hope that numpty gets served by the insurance claim!
And by telling the police he was racing you that SHOULD be done for dangerous driving; goodbye license. Some people really are unbelievable!

Evidence? I have just been offered money for mine and it wasn't 2k.
#31: Re: death of my pug :( Author: robdob, Location: oxfordPosted: Sun Apr 10, 2011 4:36 am ---- I don't really care about the money side, its the fact he couldve done me serious damage... And the fact that he killed my lil beauty. Altho loads of hours and money on it, it did its job and saved me. And for that ill always remember my pug as a great car. Probs won't go for another one too soon tho
#32: Re: death of my pug :( Author: ma.langan, Location: Leyland, LancashirePosted: Sun Apr 10, 2011 5:43 am ---- when people race they tend to know there is a car next to them so they dont just pull out and plant their opponent into the crash barrier - come to think about it that might hellp me beat this 1.4 18v corsa my mate has. been racing him down my farm yard for weeks now and no matter what i do i cant over take the bugger, maybe wedge some bales int road thattle slow him down
sorry off topic agen but be reeeet

absolutely hate scum like this bad enough they caused the accident in the first place but then to try and shift the blame onto you
this happened to my other half but luckily there were numerous witnesses who all agreed the other guy was at fault
#34: Re: death of my pug :( Author: robdob, Location: oxfordPosted: Wed Apr 13, 2011 10:08 am ---- update hes admitted full liability, awaiting payment from insurers and injury too, getting a 1.4 golf

#37: Re: death of my pug :( Author: robdob, Location: oxfordPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:16 pm ---- update just for you guys, he admitted liability and nw everythings moving along, im gettin £635 for my car gutted... plus whatever for the injury side. i cant see hw you can buy a 206 for that sort of money tbh... they told me i could pick one up on ebay :L what a joke. ah well im getting a mark 4 golf for free but my insurance per months going to be £440
#38: Re: death of my pug :( Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:23 pm ---- Would be a crap one for that much, I would argue you it what mileage was yours like?
#39: Re: death of my pug :( Author: robdob, Location: oxfordPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:27 pm ---- like 90 odd thousand and a t reg :/ they saidit was the price minus an excess making it 635 so i might be gettin that excess back seeing as im claiming off his insurance
#40: Re: death of my pug :( Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:44 pm ---- Maybe not too bad in that case. Even on ebay would expect that to go for at least a grand
#41: Re: death of my pug :( Author: robdob, Location: oxfordPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:46 pm ---- exactly
#42: Re: death of my pug :( Author: Howey, Location: Kings LynnPosted: Sun Apr 17, 2011 12:50 pm ---- How much for the mirror caps?
