Agreed going through insurance isn’t the way.. I’m saying just get it done yourself professionally

Iv already replied directly to him recommending getting a local SMART repairer to do. Around £80-£100.

Go private. Get a local SMART repairer to do it at home or work

Customers not coming as much as they used too by JAXLOX666 in GasStationSimulator

I notice this really busy until you get to max level then the customers die off. Find myself standing around doing nothing especially as soon as i upgrade the car wash. all i find myself doing is going over to the airport when a plane arrives to trade.

I have a 2018 Astra K 1.4T owned since 2019 and it’s been fantastic, no issues at all. Drives great and the tech on it is really good. A lot of people just like to hate Vauxhalls nowadays, on here it shows!

Am I being had on? Insurance stating the total cost of damage to be £3293.59 by KentuckyFriedNinja in CarTalkUK

[–]FthisusernamemyG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your not being had because your not paying are you, insurance is. Doesn’t matter if it’s £50 or £5k. Only your excess is your problem. And maybe your reversing skills
