mac79 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) So while heading home tonight as I was pulling off from a junction,a copper came round the other side of an artic smashed into the rear driverside quater span me round and into a lampost. The car is totalled any advice on making sure I get what the car is worth back so I can replace it. As I am not letting some idiot of a police officee spoil my supra fun.i worked hard to get that car plus searching for a good low mileage one at a good price.

Fly Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Oh shit. Sorry to hear this. I assume the officer stopped and you took his details etc. I would be at a bit of a loss how to proceed, surely it's just another case of going through insurance. Did he have his blues on?

Benjy Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 The Police self insure, so they'll pretty much pay out what they're told. Go and get half an hours free legal advice to see where you stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac79 Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 He had blues on but he admitted last night he had come onto the junction to fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 The best thing to do is do your own research on what it is worth and supply them 3 like for like examples of cars for sale and ask for the middle value of those 3 cars - They need to pay you market value for the vehicle. If your vehicle is not roadworthy you have the right to hire a car up until 7 days after you receive payment for your vehicle which is generally done on a "credit hire basis" although I am not 100% sure how you stand in relation to the vehicle being blue lighted as I once had a hire claim turned down by one company and accepted by another in a similar situation. If you need help with anything just drop me a PM, this is the business I was in for the last 5 years and have plenty of contacts if you need.
