well the el is going in on the 11th dec to be fixed

i cant wait to see the car when it is all fixed

i had a bit of a worrying time today as my insurance co said that i had to pay the excess but after a few phone calls i got it all sorted

as the phone # i had put on the claim form was not the right one

they could not contact her when i looked at the form i found that i had put 1 number wrong

once i let them know the right number i got a call back in 5 mins and it was all good she had accepted responcability (spelling) and the el will be repaired

i just wish it was going to be done by the G.O.R cruise but that is life

jason

sure sucks, a woman whacked my Lane in a 4WD in a car park and claims she never saw it(she was parked next to it !!!) had to have the whole rear end done... but insurance sorted it out.
