CwazyWabbit Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Amusing really that an insurance person from Zurich would come on here in stealth when Adrian Flux have a person on here who is open and honest about his affiiation to the insurance industry.

mickeyw Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 By far the worst damage I've seen is the ability for the whole car to turn my bank balance from a black number to a red number, quickly and frequently.Seems Lisa's profile has disappeared from LinkedIn, but I think we can read between the lines. Still there just now TC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPendrey Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I suppose the moral of this thread is, and I'm not suggesting anyone would do this, don't post on places this like then try and claim fraudulently. It may well be that Lisa is just interested, or maybe she's looking for more information re. a claim, but if you're daft enough to brag about something online then claim against it then that's your undoing.

No claim is being made for damage. 8mm plate? Surely he wouldn't go so lightweight? Even the tyres would have been made of 50mm solid unobtainium bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daan Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I tend to reduce panelwork (mainly roofs and wings) into scrap with a boring regularity. But since the question is insurance related; I never claimed for it. Daan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boothy Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I've seriously dented my wallet, and had my ear bent regularly by my better half, "You'd rather take that out than me", "but love it drinks less" wrong answer...

simonr Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 When I used to tow with a 90, I had some very close calls! The 90 is just not long or heavy enough to damp oscillations (wobble) if it starts - and it can very easily go very wrong! I fitted one of those towing stabiliser bars - which adds some damping between the vehicle & trailer which made it 10x better. Without the stabiliser, the nose weight on the trailer was critical. With it fitted - it barely made any difference! I'd recommend one if you tow using a 90! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
