HELP!!! Front End Damage
27. Jul 2006 at 22:05

HELP!!

In a car park this afternoon, and some dickhead in a Golf decided to go the wrong way round a one way system, drive head into the Omega, then drove off, with my girlfriend attached to his door handle!

I have front end damage; its OSF, OSF Fog is smashed, the bumper, chrome strip, OSF Wing.

here is a picture

You cant really see in the picture but the wing is pushed in slightly and the mangled black thing behind the fog lamp unit looks like a Flitch end

What do you guys reckon?

I am not interested in breakign the car, or selling, just want her fixed.

IF the other guy pays then great, but he drove off, I got his VRM and the police got the CCTV from the car park, but hey.......

By the way, the car a VW Gold Silver VRM RO51 XFE is anyone knows it, please tell me, so I can inform the police.

He just reversed off, and drove away, My Girlfriend grabbed his door handle, and he drove off with her attached, dragging her off, she okay, she let go, but it still basically attempted murder!

Cant forgive him for this! not only he wounded my baby, but he tried to kill my girlfriend!

Whats the metal thing for behind the flog lamp, thats all twisted...?

That justs Sucks.

Happened to a freind of mine a stolen Car hit him, I think he claimed for the damage but not from his own insurance something about a fund the goverment has for accidents where one driver has no insurance Ie stolen cars and the like.

I might Be wrong but check into it as its on CCTV and its not like you just crashed into a wall because you wer a bad driver

Traffic issue is minor, but leaving the scene of an accident and failing to stop at an accident. If he has points already, he could get banned. He may have a driving job, he could lose it and subsequently his house. I would call that a start in the Karma War!!

Hope all are well, dont worry about the car Cipher it fixes, quite easily.

You are of course going through insurance - via a vis tha damage to your girlfriend, the stress and the painful whiplash, neck and back pains....£££££

Id visit casualty to record these pains!

Little clips underneath to hold the bottom on then it should sort of slide out, my CD2.0 used to shed sill covers, on a couple of occasions I lost it in floods and was very lucky to get it back the next day, front fittings were damaged on the cill.

Used self tapper into wheel arch liner eventually
