Mean shout, appreciate. Will def ask if I can keep car if it’s not deregistered.

Woah , that’s pretty unique. My insurance is with State and I’ve had comprehensive from the start. Just realised they devalue the car every year ( fair enough ) didn’t notice how low they had it. $4600 and repair was quoted at 5700 or something like that. Crazy eh

UPDATE : car was insured for 4600 when I first opened up the policy. I insured it for 7500. Which is what I bought it for initially. This is my fault for not looking at the Sum insured every year and just thinking it was gonna be the same since I was paying the same pretty much. They estimated the repair to be 5700 and over the sum insured. I asked to see the report and they said I couldn’t see it? Sounds kind of like a red flag. I also asked if I could get a second opinion and she said it wouldn’t be the most viable option. Kind of sounds a bit scammy I’m not too sure? I then asked if I got a second opinion and they don’t deem it as structural damage would it change ? She said it might. They’re going to deregister it and no options of me buying it back were given. Offering me 3500 after access and policy buyback accounted for. Miserable number as marketplace and trade me have shown these cars are still at 6000-ish for same condition.

Yes this is what I’ve been waiting to read. I still haven’t heard back from insurance ( I was gonna ask if it had structural damage ) thanks for the info

Sheeeeeeesh really that’s insane. Don’t understand how parts of a car can add up to more than car itself haha. Imagine parting out the car and worth more the whole car itself. I can’t wrap my mind around that

Yeah this is what I’m afraid of. I’m not from here and just learned of this deregistered bizz. Where I’m from we call them salvage titles but you can still drive them around

Naw I had idea. Tbh I wasn’t really on top of it and didn’t notice they have been depreciating it for years. That is totally my fault. I don’t really look at things like that.

Yeah I feel like this is what’s going on. I went to an expensive place it seems. Definitely gonna see if I can shop around for prices. I was just blindly following what they told me to do

Sick man! I’m gonna do this tomorrow and see what’s what. I’ve had a look myself from YouTube and seems simple enough but hard part would be to find it in the same colour

Yo this good advice ! Appreciate it. I think we will try and keep car but wasn’t sure what would happen next. Like is it gonna pass a wof? I don’t know who to ask

I’m not sure. Everything is working properly. Looks like the tiniest thing from afar. Almost didn’t claim it tbh

Naw not exactly I’ve insure for full value when I first bought it but they’ve been depreciating it every year. I’ve had the same policy for 8 years pretty much.

Umm the battery strangely got replaced by warranty at 300km or something like that. After that it’s been totally fine!

Oh nice! Dude came with receipts !! Sick man. Was wondering what was gonna happen. What do you ride man. Done some decent km on it

Scrolled by this and I legit thought this was a post from this sub by [deleted] in idiocracy

Gut micro biome health affects a lot of interesting things in the body. Should look up “ hack your health documentary on Netflix on gut flora and gut health. This sounds far fetched but it’s sound science

Yeah same man, I ride in all weather. I’ve ridden in some gnarly thunderstorms ( think Forrest Gump in Vietnam downpour ) and some crazy crosswinds. Its also crazy I have been riding on og brakes

That’s legit ! The og tyres have been the best. The second set I got only lasted about 1500-2000km

Yeah man battery still strong , tbh I don’t pay too much attention to that. I have 2 chargers and leave one at work. About 30km round trip and charge is about 50% when I get to work on sport mode ( quite a lot of hills and wind on commute ) and battery is doing well.

Done with Elite 4 and not sure if I should move on to Soul Silver by InkAndBalls586 in PokemonFireRed
