mathew Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 havent got a clue what it excactly is though. the car is going in monday for repairs and a partner company of my insurers phoned me today to sort out a hire vehicle for me while im supra less. according to their list the supra is classed as a group 6 sports car and they would give me a suitable hire car. i asked what cars are in this group and what could i expect to turn up and the guy goes 'porsche boxsters, audi tts those sort of cars' happy days i thought but then he went on to say because of the age and value of my car theyd have to offer me a group 4 sports car instead. i was a wee bit dissapointed until he then said itl likely be an s2000,350z or a lower spec TT! roll on monday although im expecting to be severly dissapointed.

JustGav Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 strange, theyve been great with me. Did you read this bit?? Also you do not have a 'courtesy car' you have a hire car on a credit hire agreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathew Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 Did you read this bit?? yeah i read all the small print that came with it and double checked everything over the phone with them. a lot of those bad reviews involve the third party not admitting liability, the guy that went into me admitted it instantly as police had witnessed the accident. ive also had communication from albany and the guys insurer, aviva, to confirm he has admitted fault. the car is booked in monday with jaguar rgm in swansea. ive also had communication from them to confirm this. all in all im surprised with the speed of everything so far regarding this claim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mathew Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 What happened to you car Matt? I haven't seen it on the way to work for ages. some guy went into the back of me at some traffic lights. very rarely im in work these days. we are serving our notice and have been told we are entitled to days off paid if it involves looking for a new job, training or anything else along those lines. so i kinda go 'job hunting' 4 days a week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
