A few days ago after work a young girl with no insurance and no licence ran into the back of me as i was pulling into a driveway.

Got all her details.

I wasn't to botherd at the time thinking 'it's ok... insurance will pay for it and it will get fixed' :P

What i didn't know is that all the smash repair crew in town are busy and i can't get it fixed untill Feb next year. :)

No way of bringing it down to Perth to get it done bro?

Pop it on a trailer and bring it down with your Pajero ;)

I'm sure your insurer has a few preferred smash repair dealers in Perth.

If not, then kick in the other side too, make it look symmetrical and pretend you're going for "a new look" when people ask :)

No licence too? What a dodgy driver. She will be in big trouble.

I have thought about taking it down to Perth.

I'll see if i can work some deal out and try and get it done quicker.

A trip back down to Perth might be the go.

If you get it repair in Perth, there will be lots of driving to do...bring the V to Perth with Pajero, go back to Geraldton with Pajero, come back to Perth with Pajero to get the V, and drive both cars back to Geraldton. :)

      Import insurance in 2025

      You would probably do a lot better in a claims process then most people. When I called the insurance company, they were surprised I read the pds because according to them almost no one does lol.

      Yeah it should be, but I wouldn't be surprised if the insurance company tries to pull some argument out of their ass to avoid paying you out.

      On some cars like MR2 Turbos they're notorious for not letting the wastegate open far enough to avoid overboost, especially certain cheap downpipes. If adjusting "percentage cycle" fixes it then it's just an electronic control issue, not a hardware one.

      Using Trickle Chargers

      Same.  It's depressing to say this but the skyline can go months on the charger between drives.

      Using Trickle Chargers

      By Duncan · Posted

      I often leave mine connected weeks at a time. The main one I use is the old model of this, it has 2 important features - choose battery chemistry other than lead acid (most of mine are AGM) - power supply mode which you can use to try and recover dead flat batteries as "smart" chargers often don't recognise a dead flat battery is connected https://www.projecta.com.au/products/IC10/intellicharge-10a-bat-chgr The Ctek I  use was meant to have a battery test mode as well but it doesn't work 100% of the time so I am pissed at them. The distributor did everything possible to make warranty and support difficult so I'll stay away in future. The main thing with a "trickle" charger is it has multi stage programs, ie once the battery is full it turns the current right down to just maintain the charge....in the old days we just used real "trickle" chargers for that which had a maximum output of say 500mA which was safe to just leave connected to dumb old lead batteries.
