Abz Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Really sorry to hear this, I know how much you loved your Supra too Seems to be a pattern though isn't this the second young girl in a corsa to hit a Supra in the last couple of months?! I am staying away from Corsa's!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Hopefully I can find a nice young one again, preferably black as well Thats all well and good, but what sort of car would you be considering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie-S Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Bad news, but at least you are ok. You could sell it to Keron so he can put the engine in mine.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisted Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 I'm waiting on a verdict. Everyone believes the other driver is at fault. I have 2 independent witnesses, she has her friend as a witness, the police officer at the scene believes its not my fault, I had priority at the crossing as well. Not forgetting to mention there is CCTV covering the junction which should show she pulled out on me. Although she is saying that it's my fault and I took her out from the side :/ Hopefully I can get it from the insurance company if they give me a good price as I can break it or sell it to a breaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Just looking at where the impact obviously was on the corsa, for it to have been you hitting her, rather than the other way, surely there would be more damage on the supe? Was she by any chance blonde? Good to see in a fight the supra can still dish it out Hope you get in a new supra soon dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty confident I'm not at fault but as expected the girl is claiming she isn't also. Haha no but she looked like perry from Kevin and Perry go large Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kokoro Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I feel for you. My Supe was hit on 1st Feb. I'm still waiting for insurance to sort it out. It's so sad to see it sat damaged on the drive when I could be out enjoying it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 How much do you all think a VVTI, triptronic, auto, TT, Jspec, completely standard, 2000, quicksilver, with 40,000 miles on the clock, worth? Was in very good condition apart from a couple of paint blemishes. Needing to know so I can gauge what the insurance will offer me and what I can argue with them.

Calzo21 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Mines was that except '97 and had 26,500km in black...was £8100 when I paid for it if that helps you gauge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I'd say around £9k personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 £9k to £10k IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 £9k but I reckon they will offer you £7k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 if its not an open and shut case then the insurance companies will most like end up pushing for a 50/50 fault - not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Got a call through today from insurance. Offered me £9000 and as is the norm I rejected the first offer and tried my hardest to get them to go up. Ended getting them up by £40 because of my phone bill and fuel left in the supra. They said I could buy my one back for £1980 but I managed to get them down to £1750 until I unfortunately realised that I wouldn't be able to buy the supra I have my eye on for only £7250 and the money I would make from the old supra wouldn't come through in time. So with having to loose money before I could make it and not having any money to loose in the first place I settled for the giving me £9040. Which isn't bad. Once I buy the new supra I will have a little left over to play with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
