Its a write off, said it will work out more than whatever the % is of car value.
They offering me 15k!
There was 14miles on the dam clock and no damage!

Does that value include your mods? If not make sure you get the value of those too  :happy2:

I would be happy with 15k given recent trade in rates ive been offered  :sick: though mine has 40k miles

Look on the bright side mate and get car shopping  :party:

Don't accept their first offer is the first thing you should do!!

Start looking for similar models to substantiate your claim for more cash.

I can't remember if you posted, was it fault or non fault in the end?

If it was a non fault then you have every right to ask them for enough money to purchase a vehicle of the same specification as the one which was 'taken' from you.  So as I say, if it is a non fault start gathering your info, make sure it's main dealers too

not a bad find at all although its 200miles away and the xeons are a biggy, didn't think they could be fitted after because of the electrics?
