My Girlfriend has smashed up my car, well its not her fault but, she was driven into. I got told today its a write off but I havnt gone back to accident repair place to get a list of the damage etc etc. Must be close though coz i drove it there and it felt fine. Damage was all down left side, just dented in with some metal pulled back over itself and nothing visible inside the car. So now begins the battle to get as much off the Ins company as I can and ask for any hints and tips from you guys, please please please..........
In a nutshell it is (was) a very good example: 53 reg pre face lift, 57,000, FSH (6/8 services at Honda including last 4), standard car, Front fogs, full leather seats, no dents chips etc etc, no colour fade, garaged.......
As i got it from a Honda dealer I had a look and saw currently there are only 3 cars honda have that are close to it:
53 reg at 67000miles 6949, not got FSH
03 reg at 50000miles 6500, FSH
03 reg at 51000miles 7494, FSH
None have front fogs or leather seats and there isnt a type R at a honda dealer with leather seats ATM, and im pretty sure there wont be any time soon as they are rare as ****. Found a couple on Autotrader for £7500 ish with leather but they were '04 with lower milage, which doesnt help. Apart from printing off these adds and listing the condition of the car etc etc what else can i do to maximise the money im gonna get back and also what do you think im gonna be offered??????
Help appreciated.
