I had a car crash last night on the M25 while returning home after a visit to family and friends down on the South coast in Sussex.Stationary traffic middle lane and a boy racer with personalised number plates ploughs into the back of me shoving my hatchback into a concave surface.
The whole palaver of arranging things has taken almost a day, I am okay tho, seemingly no damage to me, my car is a mess, but that'll get sorted.Yes, it's a citroen mpv.

Rotten luck. I've emailed you some thoughts.

Thank goodness yours was comparatively big and heavy, Paul. Was the boy racer hurt?

That's the reason why we and our daughters all drive 7 seater MPVs.

I hope it gets sorted soon. It can take a long time. We once had an accident with a car that turned out to be stolen about three owners back and consequently was n't properly insured. Luckily we had no claims bonus protection.

Love,
Anthony

Glad to hear you're OK.

No the young twenty something who ran into me was seemingly very unhurt, his car however was not!front secton stove in as one would expect.

Its such a hassle though, getting pictures, details and then contacting insurance companies, mine had to be recovered at once as my locking system failed so car was no longer securable overnight!

Transpires my insurance package gives me a like for like hire car when it's transparently not my fault! .... but only if the other driver is insured. It took a day to be certain of that as the young guy had no idea who his insurance was with. Seems Daddy arranged it all.

We press on

Paul.
