A sad day in the BuzyG house hold. My beloved ///MR has just been written off. :cry:

The incident occurred last Wednesday about 200yards from our house. Another car pulled out on me, absolutely nothing I could do. I didn't even have time to apply the brakes. No one was hurt.

Just had the insurance on telling me they have had to write the car off. The engineers sounded genuinely gutted too. He had asked for more pictures and details of the damage, so clearly it was border line, hence it had taken a week before they came back to me.

Any way no one hurt and the insurance are paying about what I would think the car is worth. So I have the option to buy another. For now I will just get over it. Then see how things are. :(
 
That’s such a shame, I feel for you :headbang:, have you thought of buying it back and repairing it yourself?
 
Absolutely gutted for you mate and so pleased you're not hurt.
Time to get your crystal ball out. Enjoy the hunt.
 
That’s hard when you’ve owned a car for a long time, but the most important thing is your health. Hope it didn’t shake you up too much :cry:
 
A sad day indeed Mr G. :(

Whatever you decide to do, just don't leave here. It wouldn't be the same without you. :thumbsup:
 
Sorry to hear the car has been written off but as you have said no one is hurt and that is far more important, take your time and find another one
 
Ah man, that is rubbish. Glad to hear nobody was hurt and that the valuation was ok.

Will you get the option to buy it back as salvageable?
 
One of the best-used and loved ///Ms on the forum - that's really sad, but I am very relieved to hear you're ok Mr B :thumbsup:
 
How did you control yourself for this long before posting the news . I suppose waiting to hear if it was going to be a write off . Well as already said time to move to the dark side and get a coupe especially as the weather is changing :) or something completely different . Glad you are ok :thumbsup:

That was an option from the conversation this morning. I was not interested though. It just would not be the same car, to me, with an insurance mark against it. I have all winter now to think about what next. Might down size to a mk4 Mx5. I will certainly consider buying another ///MR as well.

Yep I was kind of in denial until the call this morning. :(
