This morning, swmbo was driving through Clapham on her way to work (headlights on and sensible speed) and a Suzuki Swift pulled out from a driveway/small road straight into the side of the 230TE.
The damage is both n/s doors and claddings, a bent in wheel arch and a scratched rear wheel.
They swapped details, but the other driver was slightly wrong on her reg no. Luckily my o/h double checked this and got the correct one!
So I've been worrying that the insurance company are going to want to write the car off and thinking of ways to get around it etc.
Unfortunately when we notified our insurance company a few hours later, the other car was not on the insurance database but are now trying to make contact with her!
I know this doesn't necessarily mean she isn't insured but I think I can already tell the way this is heading.
