Under normal circumstances I probably would have just said screw it and go through the insurance and get the police involved if needed. My only concern is the fact that he knows where I live, his kids go the same school and we'll I'm dealing with scum here and scum don't have a conscience. At...
Well this all took a turn for the worst. Since my messages were being ignored my other half done some Facebook detective work and I used my Google foo. Found the fella who hit my car and he went to prison in 2016 for robbing a lady and knifepoint.
Took my daughter to school this morning and...
Thanks for all of the replies. I guess o live on the exit of a bend, my car has been parked there for 6 years and never had an issue. In fact I had parked as far over as possible to give people plent of to since the ice was so thick.
I went to my body shop of choice and had a quote of £400 for...
Thanks for the advice, to be fair it was a genuine accident. I live on the same road as my kids primary school and his kids go to the same school. I live on a corner and it's still about 3/4 inch of ice on the road. I was walking up my path with my daughter when his van with his Mrs and kids in...
I don't really mind not going via the insurance as it'll save me the hassle and won't affect my premiums providing a decent job is done. I think I may contact my own trusted body shop for a quote and see where it goes. My car is Monza silver, don't want to turn up to some awful paint match. Was...
Hi people
Someone crashed in to my car today when it was parked outside the house. The fella was very apologetic and asked.if we could sort this out without going through the insurance. The damage isn't too bad, dented from wing and a few scratches. The dent has no creases and looks like it will...
Anyowho may come across this, it required brute force. A bolster jammed in the opening and lots of hitting. The pinch bolt was completely destroyed so replaced that with a normal nut and bolt and all sorted
Hello people
My MOT is due on Tuesday and my tie rod end needs doing. I have everything undone I believe but I can't get the tie rod to release from the knuckle.
I tried to pry it out and had no luck and asked my local garage for help who told me about the hex nut in the top of the tie rod end...
Hi
I've got a pair SKF wheel bearing kits for sale. I bought them along with discs and pads last year as I was getting some strange noises from the front wheel but it turned out to be the discs at fault so these where never needed. I would like £45 each, if both go together than I will cover...
Hello people
Haven't been on here for donkeys and my car hasn't been touched. Got a stock of little bits that I've not put on yet too.
I did however stick some spacers on about 4 months ago and since then I've found tears in the side walls of all 4 tyres but.manly the front two.
I've put 15...
I've also had to use the trickle method before, I was stuck without a.funnel.onntwonoccasions where I've had to use a piece of paper rolled in to a cone, workes quite well actually!
You could rent a rug doctor from your local Tesco depending on how dirty it is. I went halves with someone on it for 2 days, one bottle of detergent was enough to do 2 cars and 2 houses worth of carpet and I still have detergent left. Brilliant things have rented them about 5 times over the...
Love the Daimler's my uncle has a coupe wrapped up in a garage I hope I can get my hands on one day. Hasn't been touched for at least 25 years. Yours is looking spot on!
Hope the little fella is feeling a bit better, great how he gets stuck in.
