accident

Never belived in Friday 13th till today. Luckily was not my fault and other driver accepted liability. Exchanged details at the side of the road and left. Got a phone call asking if it was ok for him to pay cash to repair car. I don't believe in claims for fake whiplash and stuff like that...

Someone in a Landrover reversed into the front of my car today whilst it was parked up, damaging the bonnet quite badly and breaking a few other things on the front of my c-class :mad:. To be fair to the guy, rather than drive off he left a note with his contact details and when I spoke to him...

Legendary US Wrestler Killed In Car Crash - Yahoo! News A sad day for the wrestling fraternity.

The IAM have just published an analysis of contributory factors in road accidents as collected by the Police since 2005. It makes interesting reading and while the report is honest enough to point out that there are limitations inherent in the data, it really does bring into question why so...

An interesting (if lengthy) article. LINK. Plenty of worthwhile information that explains in depth, the rising costs of motor insurance.

I've been running a thread on the insurance repair of my CL500 at a non MB workshop. The car was sent back yesterday and I rejected it due to a number of issues, not least of which is the fit of some panels I've posted a few pictures for your opinion on the bonnet fit I don't recall...

Hello to everyone, I am new to this forum, having been the proud owner of a brand new A class since last December. However my joy was short lived after a stupid bloke decided to skid his car into mine after what I think was reckless driving from his side. My car didn't sustain as much damage...

Junior B had a 'wee' accident in the car a couple of weeks back. Not much appeared to escape and I mopped up the seat at the time with tissue and wet wipes and thought nothing more of it as it was such a small amount. Roll on to now and the car has a distinct aroma of pee when you get in which...
