I'd take him straight to court buts its up to you, imagine u did have insurance it would be a complete write off insurance isnt gonna pay 7.5 for a VL think about it

Hahaha, no offence mate but this proves what I was talking about in the thread I made last week. I could imagine if there is 7k worth of damage the car isnt gonna be the same again. But yeah, only way youre gonna get money outta him is taking him to court, which will also be costly. Got pics of the damage? Is it drivable?

VLHERO youre a complete ****wit mate...he would have needed Full Comp to cover that! How many people have Full Comp on a VL these days FFS..... Definately take him court or find out where he lives and start taking assets.

Definately take him court or find out where he lives and start taking assets. ah. i believe if you have 3rd party, and an un-insured driver hits you, your damage is covered by your insurance company and the insurance company then chases up the money from the uninsured driver. i must say though, i wouldn't drive a car without insurance.

this sorta happened to me, except no other car was involved.i had fire and theft but that wouldnt help much as the excesses added up to the value they were gonna pay out.i just had to deal with it and put it down to my own stupidy.and by the way i know it wasnt ur fault, but if u cant afford 3rd party u cant afford the car imo.bad luck mate just gotta deal with it
