after weeks of waiting and driving my sisters stupid lancer, i got my car back!!!

$6k worth of repairs all up. got my front bar fixed which was good and it all looks pretty sweet now.

i am looking for a series 2 r33 grill if anyone has one. i bought one but it only fits series 1.

and to top it all off, the woman i had the accident with if trying to sue me coz she hasnt got the money for her car yet!!!! she reckons she talked to my insurance company and they said i never made a claim! and she wants me to fork over the money for her repairs. (bad enough i had to pay for mine)

she asked me repeatedly for a claim number so she could get her car assessed weeks ago and i did that and never heard from her until last week. her cars damages are aroun $6.5k, and i sure as hell aint giving her the money.

i spoke to my insurance company and gave them my claim number (which she says i never got), and they said that i paid my excess and everything should be sweet. they reckon shes just impatient coz i paid the excess last week and she hasnt received the cheque yet.

anyway, the insurance comp is gonna handle it apparently. stupid b***h.

if anyones interested, im selling my motorbike to pay for the damages. its a 2002 honda xr250 road/trail.

sorry for the long rant, had to get it off my chest.

She has to make a claim against *your* insurance, you don't have to make a claim for her to your insurance. Just ignore the other woman, its not really up to you to sort out if your insurance is covering her claim.

Insurance companies are really really slack when it comes to fixing your car when it is somebody else's fault.

In my old car, somebody hit it. Took me 6 months of driving it around all banged up till their insurance gave me the go ahead to get it fixed!

Insurance is the biggest load of shit in the world if you ask me :(

I was driving around a car that was owned by the manufacturer.. wont go into detail as to what car it was or why i had it... but i crashed it on glenferrie road coming back from Room yonks ago. A guy did a U turn in front of me and wrote of both cars.

He had no insurance and the police at the time deemed it to be my fault (because they lost witness statements and beleived his lies).

In the mean time i just gave the car back and let them deal with the problem, but being a major comany, the didnt care, put it out the back and didnt file the insurance claim til 11month later..... the whole time with this dudes lawyers on my back....

after all that cleared the decision was finally made it was his fault so it was all good in the end.

Bascially all u can do is try to screen your phone calls (HE was calling more than 10times a day at one stage) and try and get some sleep... eventually it all blows over ... in my case it took farken ages
