This is my mate's cammed SS. He was driving along minding his own business in Mt Isa when some old lady came out of nowhere and Tboned him, all of a sudden he was in the passenger seat, no major injuries.

Its at the assessor now, hes very curious as to if they will write it off or not, fully insured.

    If the B pillar or side rail is bent its a write off

    I'd say that's a writeoff

    If the damaged exceeds half of the insured amount of say 15,000 if more then 7,500 damage it will be a write
    It could also be a repairable write off but most likely a write off
    If insured with the right insurance possibly could buy it back if wanted
    Cars don't need much damage to them to be written of these days

    how does one end up in the passenger seat if they were wearing a seat belt and the drivers seat itself stayed in the same position!!

    No need to punish the old lady, she's already done her community service

    5% in some cases..


    In NSW, since the rules for write-off's came in place, the scrap price for cars has dropped...in some cases the excess is more then the scrap price of the car...

    I'm sure they could pretty easily find something on this to void the insurance. Rear tyres, suspension, hooning, blacked out rear lights pick one.

    unlikely... but if the insurer tries that trick, it could be contested and if the FOS comes in I'd expect they would most likely rule in favour of the client as the mismatched wheels probably would not have contributed to the accident

    This!

    Also, the whole bangwagon of insurance companies always voiding claims for little things is getting a little tiring.

    99% of the time, play nice, treat them well and you will be fine.

    If he is fully insured and so is she, the ball is in his court, it will be her insurance paying the lot. The insurance company will try to screw him down for the least cost, they always do, if he has no need for the car, the longer he "considers" what you may or may not do they will want to just finalise it, you do not have to take the first offer.

    But on a high point, it has taken a set of the fugliest rims off the road at least for a while.
