You could try reminding this insurance company that their client is liable
for the damage to your car and that you are entitled to have that damage
repaired to it's pre-accident condition, especially as the car would be
difficult to replace.
it may be worth a try as the law used to say that. Mar

Many years ago (about 1990-91) I owned a Spartan Roadster that was stuffed up
the back end by a diesel Citroen BX who didn't see my brake lights. The Citroen

Quite often with panel damage on vehicles over 10 years old the cost of repair
usually far our strips it’s value, in the eyes of insurers anyhow, I would

there is potential to have the disc slightly wonky, which will make the
disc feel like it's warped. I also use copper grease on the back of the
Dear All,
For info. & questions.
My front brake discs had been on the car since I built it and were getting
rusty, so time for a change. Problem was I could not get the discs of the hub.
Soaking in WD40 and a mallet was getting nowhere. In the end I bought a very
