thorpe84 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 iv only had my car for a short time (almost 3 months) and i was about to get it insured with just cars,......the 3,000+ they quoted me was alot for me so i had to save up, and i was $600 short. accident happend in melbourne 2 nights ago comming onto the eastern freeway at about 8:30pm we were going about 30kmph around the down ramp and my gf was driving, the roads were wet and it was really busy. she put her foot down not that hard to get to 100 k's when were were on the straight, next thing you know the back end slide out and we were heading toward the side/hill sideways, car hit the hill while it was sliding and it flipped twice. we are both okay but im a shatterd mess i will post some pics when i find my camera i went to the salvage place today and got my stereo and air filter that i had just put on not even a week before. and before you all start saying servs you right for not getting insurance, well yeah i guess it does but then again i wasnt driving the car anyway so it wouldnt have been coverd in my gf's name. faaaaaaarrk, now im out of work cant pay rent and so on, fffffffffffffffaaaaaaarrrkkk here is a pic i took of my car earlier that day...il do the before and after thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modena Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Yes you are a silly for not getting insurance, you could of spun shit and said you were driving it! How do you think the rest of people claim insurance? Im sorry your car is a write off but you really need to get insurance sorted before you start driving a sports car thats worth more than 2 K. Ah well, I guess your GF owes you lots of different favours, sexual, unsexual you name it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEF11E Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 bad news mate. sounds like it could have happen to anyone. I hope you did not buy the car on a personal loan, that would be a double whammy. hope you make back some on the parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thorpe84 Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 my next question i guess is, how much an an rb25de worth with gearbox and loom, it had done under 100,000 the only things i would be able to get from it would be...maybe wheels, but they are shit 2 tyres are blown/4stud, front and rear lights, seats and dash, also the boot/spolier is fine i really need to know because im just waiting for the guy at the wrecking yard to go "il give ya $1000 for it" and in my current financial position im kind of f**ked on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANWHORE Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I feel for you mate. Tonight, I just had a hairy moment in my daily driver. the car has very low traction. it's a death trap. I was just driving along, I adjusted my position in my lane, then boom, the car was sideways and i was steering for my life. I hit the kerb. nothing is visibly broken, but this car is getting sold asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

predator Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 as long as you are ok.. $2-3k worth of parts maybe, but a lot of stuffing around to sell them. Least you're young, you've got time to pay it off and move on - learn from the f**k up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
