hoff Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I had a gen 6 celica GT (st202) with 120k on the clock which was totalled by a careless driver. It had brand new dished 18s on and was lowered 40mm. The settlement offer...£1700. Surely they're trying it on???????????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 I have 2 totally smashed and 2 reasonable but couldnt get them off. It was a hell of a smash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Gutted I'd argue the value; ST202s are still going for around £2.5 - 3k (or more!) on the market at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 That sounds about right. I found 10 on Autotrader in 5 mins selling for between 3 and 3 and a half. Attached them to an email and sent it to them to "help with their valuation." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Be careful arguing too much, if you hadn't declared the rims in writing, and gotten a written acceptance they COULD dispute the claim altogether. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 I know. I havent mentioned them in my arguement, just sent them some examples. Most are all standard to boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonlady Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 If they can find one themselves, same age, milage etc for what they are offering then thats what you get. Yes it stinks, we got caught a few years back. Our car was written off when a women lost control and hit my wife head on.They declared fault straight away and after a long battle we were short changed by over 4k. Barstuards!!!!!!! Get as much evidance as you can and fight. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
