#1: Bad Luck with my 206 Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Thu Oct 06, 2011 9:24 am ---- Once again the sahara yellow suffers its 3rd dent on the front wing, this time on the new front driver side wing which got replaced last year.
Car had its 1st one by a caravan driving by entering the dual carriage way,got that fixed up. 2nd is a dent on passenger side front wing in a parking situation which i didn't even know about until later the day spotting a dent.
3rd one getting hit stopped at zebra crossing,scratched my rear wing paint job and damaged my rear light.
Now 4th dent on the new front wing on driver side.
All happened to be female drivers...now seriously man i get feeling this car has some karma around it or just bad luck.
I don't even know if i should take it to insurance for the claim of damage for the front wing because the woman admitted it was her fault or do i just go get quote at a body workshop to see how much it is and just take funding out of her pocket...
What would you guys do?? I just want part exchange car now to be honest because its nothing but trouble,replace it for a different and better car.

#3: Re: Bad Luck with my 206 Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Thu Oct 06, 2011 9:34 am ---- Because it was badly damaged when the caravan driver banged into it from side on the hill bit of entering the dual carriage way. Clipped the door,smashed indicator and damaged the whole driver side wing.
This one right now is a dent on driver side near my headlights.
The car has some kind of aura i swear for bad things,this is like 4th time its been getting its ass handled by careless drivers.

I will be the typical p**s poor insurance approved body shop repair.
Rushed & no care taken on the job

I know what you mean with the aura. Some old git reversed into me on a carpark, which trashed his rear bumper and put a scuff on my front one, 2 weeks later car hit black ice and was written off when the front suspension disappeared under the car. Now it's have one bump and the car goes.
If I were you I'd see if she'll pay for the damage. If you go through the insurance, then you will both loose out. Go to a garage and ask them for a quote for a cash repair. If they don't need to put it through the books, then they could do it cheaper or even give it an apprentice to do for experience.
#7: Re: Bad Luck with my 206 Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Thu Oct 06, 2011 9:50 am ---- I was thinking of just taking car to body shop to get quote but i don't know any in Northampton,and just make her pay for it.

Abbey Coachworks on Gate lodge close on Round Spinney are the local Peugeot approved bodyshop.
When Bristol Street Peugeot was being built they forgot to add something on the design, thats right, they forgot the bodyshop
