@watermelon sugar sorry to hear that! I’m sure he’ll find something soon. Try not to stress but I know it’s a massive shock!

The guy who’s car I hit has sent me a quote for £1700 for repairs. His bleeping car isn’t even worth £1700. He can duck right off and go through my insurance. There’s no damage to my car at all so I’m confused to how there’s £1700 worth of damage to his. Con artist!!
Omg I bet the cheeky fucker got his mate to ring up a quote!! Let the insurance sort it out and defo tell them he’s trying to scam you!

Look at his email as well. He’s basically trying to convince me to pay for it as it’ll be beneficial to me. My insurance is only £350 a year so surely even if he does claim on it it won’t go up to £1700?? I don’t even know what he’s banging on about tbh something about drivers side I BARLEY TOUCHED HIM.

I didn’t! I just didn’t know what to do. He took pics though so I’ve asked him for them. I literally hit him in reverse at 1mph and he was parked so I’ve no idea what he’s on about 😬😬
He seems like a twit who is trying to pull a fast one - I would defo just go through insurance and let them deal with it, he’s trying too hard to justify why you shouldn’t go through insurance and it seems well dodgy

Nah that absolutely sounds sketchy. Does he think you’re an idiot!! I’m so annoyed on your behalf! A new steering rack and clutch won’t be impacted by a tiny bump.

You only need to pay your excess if you’re claiming for your own car as well. Your insurance would probs go up but not that much! He’s Chatting tit! BF scratched someone’s car and it only went up like £70 odd

Omg I bet he hasn’t got the steering rack or clutch done and he’s using that to try get you to pay

Omg do I not even need to pay excess if I’m not claiming for my car? Nah he can duck off. On the quote it’s got something about check and clean car. What’s that got to do with me 😂
I’m so annoyed it happened. I should mention he was parked in a space that’s not even a bleeping parking space. Obviously I shoulda looked better but what can you do 😅😅😅

What a nobjockey. I'd just reply to him and day after thinking things trough you've decided to go trough insurance.

He sounds like he knows he would get a £100 repair from insurance and is chancing his arm for a bit of extra cash from you.

What a fool. Trough 😂

I’ve just become kind of an aunty again. My ex SIL has just had a boy ❤ Mini bored will be thrilled when he wakes in the morning as he wasn’t prepared to entertain the thought that it might be a girl cousin for him 😂

Ah you guys have proper cheered me up I was having such a tit evening. I’m waiting for his damage pics and then I’m gonna tell him to go trough insurance and duck off.

In other news apparently were expecting a 28 degree heat wave in April and I’m nowhere near beach body ready!!!!!!!!
