The Wife's 1.7cdti Mokka

[Rusty2009]

I'm sorry and surprised to hear they're not repairing it.
keep us updated on the progress.

The max they would give me was £4,430 wouldn't budge.

I spoke to insurance etc it's tough I have to lose the mokka and have to find any extra money needed to buy another car.

I can't even claim it back as a uninsured loss.

I've had to make a postal application to retain the private reg because at some point in the last 5yrs the car went without TAX for 90 days. The car is not to be moved as DVLA might want to inspect it, so postal application takes up-to 2 weeks and if they want to inspect the car that will take up-to 4 weeks.

The payout system is also odd, we have to wait for the 3rd insurer to agree to the figure and then pay the claim management company, then we will get a 2nd cheque from the salvage company, for they are paying for the car.

But here's the catch, if the insurer payout I lose the hire car within 7 days, even if I don't get the cheque from the salvage.

It's all total madness, it was far simpler when the Mrs wrote her pug off and was at fault.

I've been having a look got my eyes on a couple of cars but I can't move on them until the payout comes in.
