    Sorry to hear about your bingle, same thing happened to me last year. Its a real pain. I wonder if nos quarters and doors are still available. Sadly, it might be close to being written off. Ute looked very clean.

    Good luck,

    Cheers Geoff

    she is a good old ute..5litre with all the goods and lpg..technically it will be a write off but as it will be a 3rd party claim against her insurance they cash settle me and i keep ute and because it is over 15 years old its not a stat right off ..ive got the parts to repair which i will..fun part will be argueing the value with them..ive had to do it before and im a licensed dealer so they will listen to my argument to a point over a normal human..

    In this situation we would all do money I can see a man off your talent can turn this negative into a positive and make a bob out of a bad situation .even if you have to buy the write off repair it and drive it for next ten years to get your Money back .although i think you will find quicker than this off course these vr utes or what ever it is
    are rare and worth a lot of money

    i dont have to buy the wreck back coz im claiming on her insurance and they have no right to my vehicle...insurance companies often scam people doing third party claims(claiming on driver at faults insurance)and keep the cars and do a cash settlement rather than repairing..this is a great scam that insurance companies have been doing for years to people that dont know..
    i have to have it quoted by a panel shop of my choice which i already know the repairs will exceed the value of the vehicle..ute is worth 4 to 5k
    then it has to be assessed by an nrma insurance assessor at the panelshop..then they contact me and tell me its worth 2k and i can keep the ute and they give me a cheque.
    this is where argument starts re value and they either play or we go to insurance ombudsman..
    ive been through this a couple of times before..always fun.
    will let you know what transpires.
