[Pav]

[sevenfourate]

ANY progress at all today bud ?

 

[Johnny 99]

Very sorry to read this. Hope you get it sorted quickly and favourably.

 

[Branx]

Heartbroken for you mate, but look on the bright side - maybe you'll now find yourself looking to upgrade
Important is that everyone is OK.

BTW, in Croatia, this is not a write-off, not even close - it's a touch of paint and you're on the road

 

[mr freeze]

Sad to see this news . Glad your ok .

 

[LOCKE]

Not another one. First @suj now you. Crap news mate, as said the main thing is you are ok. Gutted to say the least.

 

[suj]

Oh man, it is so sad to see this! I feel your pain dude, but don't give up on taking their valuation, I have been fighting for mine, I think they are realising I am not going to give up (feel free to PM me if you want any help etc).

Good luck with it, it was so nice!

Ok, so a quick run down, will post more details soon.

the car is a write of and just agreeing a price, but i will be buying the car back and will be breaking it.

So all the recaro seats will be available and i will give this forum the first chance on buying stuff etc.

Adam,

Presuming it has no kinks etc in it - i'd love to buy the passenger side door; window trim / rubbers from you. (Managed to put a kink in my vertical part when removing the B-pillar trim).

Good luck with it all buddy !

Cheers.

 

[Adam_C]

Shuv,

The door is dinted unfortunate so will be no good for you

 

[Adam_C]

See pic on other page shuv, sorry

 

[sevenfourate]

And the trim too (Which has a rubber outer - but metal inner) ?

So like me - if you bend the metal inner; it then tends to hold that shape.........

 

[Adam_C]

Shuv,

Ill keep you posted, but im just due to agree a figure of what they are offering me for my car, but i will 100% be buying it back as i have agreed that figure already.

i will take more pictures etc and go into detail for you so i know what you are after etc..

will prob start breaking after Christmas when everything has been confirmed

But if you would like anything please do post and ill give you first dibs

Firstly good luck with it all pal.

***As above - passenger side window rubbers wanted.

Ideal for you - as 2 minutes to remove and perfect if the actual door is fubur'd and cant therefore sell as a whole!!

Another update:

have agreed a price etc on all of the car, just waiting for the money to come through now.

Once i have received the money and the final letter confirming everything etc i will be breaking the car, they estimate it to be in around 2 weeks time

 

[Big Ben]

Sad news Adam. Hope you was comfortable with the settlement figure. Will you get another hot hatch?

 

[Adam_C]

Yes i am happy with the figure, and yes but i think i am going to get another Fiesta ST. (MK6) i do really really like the clio but my next upgrade was going to either be a focus rs mk3 or the new clio, so ill keep the st for a while then see what happens.

[matt9566]

Wow, looks like you've had some good luck especially if they're giving you a price your happy with so quickly! Usually takes them a while to get to a decent price.
