I've personally never heard of an accident there but I would guess there has been before hand it's it is a bit of a crazy junction.

To be honest if he can see traffic coming along there and still he decides to pull out, why didn't he pull into the right hand lane instead of across into yours? Sounds to me like he overcooked it pulling out.
Probably trying to keep up with the guys who had already pulled out.

I honestly don't know what he was thinking Ollie.
Maybe he was trying to keep up with his mates and didn't look properly. Or misjudged his acceleration as he had a pillion.
Got my courtesy car now, it's massive.
At the minute I can't praise RASL enough. Car was recovered really quickly and is now in a body shop. Should hear what's happening with the car tomorrow. Courtesy car the next morning, staff are really helpful and polite. Let's hope my experience stays good.

Yeh insurance are paying. The body shop guy said they were as good as gold and gave the ok the repair straight away.
Its safe to say when he told me it would be £2400 I expected them to write it off.

If its a not at fault accident, it shouldnt effect your premium.
We all know that's not true though.
Do we?
Ive had non at fault accidents before and never had a loading on my premium as a result.
To be an insurance approved repair it will have to be all new parts and guarenteed etc, the prices are way higher than you could fix it for as a member of the public using secondhand parts etc.
I'm assuming the bikers insurance is paying as the body shop told me there is no excess to pay on my part. I also haven't heard anything regarding the accident from either insurance company apart from what I've told them over the phone.
I expected maybe £1500 for repairs. But I couldn't care what it costs really. I'll just be happy to have my car back.

Yep, non fault someone coming onto my side of the road and sideswiped me. Stuck about £200 on come renewal.

All depends if you inform your insurer. If it all goes via the third party and your insurance company don't get a whiff of it then you can get away without being stung.
All depends on who blames who though. If there is doubt about liability then it always pays to let your insurance company know.
In regards to the cost, that sounds pretty much the going rate considering the damage. Labour alone will prob be approaching 1k, add in circa 300+ for materials etc and then Renault parts and VAT...
What time you thinking? I'll pop down in my big brown monster if it's after I've finished work at 7.
I asked where the cost was split. He told me its just over £1000 just for the car parts let alone materials and labour.

How weird! Glad everyones ok and this seems to be goin the way it should. I just keep looking at it and i know with my wife on the back i would have to be pretty sure i was ok to pull out because you just can't give it some beans to get out of trouble. Very odd behaviour from this particular two wheeler especially as his daughter was on the back. He was lucky you were in the clio as something heavier with worse brakes could have really given him something to think about.
Maybe it was a bit of karma!? he may have been a bit of a chancer and needed a wake up call. Shame it picked you to do the damage

Just gone and got the car back.
They've missed the bumper stickers which I expected so they are going to try and get some.
I'm so happy to get the car back

It's up next month. After my last non fault accident it went up by £50. Probably be more this time I'd imagine.
Yeh we'll have to sort that out Si.
My wheels were refurbed at South West Wheel Repairs on the Marsh Barton estate in Exeter. Did a top job as my wheels were awful before.

If I'm not mistaken Renault supply the bumper painted up and without those stickers.
Ive no idea. It does look like a pretty good paint job, well to my untrained eye anyway.
I'll just hound the body shop for my stickers. They'll be glad to get rid of me lol.

Small world, I work in assessing and I authorised the work to be done on your car. Guy at the garage said it was mint.
