    Need urgent advice re: car fire

    Yeah will see what they say tomorrow and if I'm not happy with their response will threaten them with an independent inspection. Interestingly they called this evening to say do I want to give the car for salvage so I can speed up the claim, told them to hold off.

    Need urgent advice re: car fire

    It's a total loss, so they're going to assess it to confirm this and then give me a figure so that I can buy another car BUT if this was potentially down to their incompetence, then I'm going to wring them for as much as I can get, especially as they won't even offer me a courtesy car in the...

    Need urgent advice re: car fire

    Appreciate that but like I said my insurer is not going to investigate so before I stump up the money for an independent inspection, I wanted to know if it was even feasible that a static shock a week and half ago was a contributory factor e.g. caused a short circuit somewhere which eventually...

    RS3 Confirmed!

    It's a mule, i.e they've used the body off an S3 as a disguise but if you look closely the brake discs are drilled and the calipers are larger plus the air intakes at the front are functional whereas they're not on an S3.

    They say they might write it off :(

    Reminds me of the time I left my S3 parked up on a high street only to come back to find the rear 3/4 dented and a horrible white mark across the passenger door but no offending vehicle so not best pleased as you can imagine. Car was only a year old so went through insurance who after some...
