  1. Policy is new for old, but given they're out of production I don't think they'll be able to replace it.. Sort of suits me anyway. I liked the car, but don't really need a Ute anymore anyway.. Hopefully get the cash, buy a half decent ~10k run around to replace the current excel run around until I decide what I wanna buy...
  2. Racv.. Dealing with the call centre wasn't too bad, think it was more the assesor side of things is a joke. First off it was 'the assessor is on annual leave' like I give a f**k, get another one. So from what I've pieced together now, initial assessor saw it after probably 2 weeks of sitting at their preferred repair centre, maybe not his fault claims hadn't told him it's there etc.. He was the one that said it might be a write off.. Then I think he went on leave, I told them that's not my problem get someone else on it.. That new assessor said it'd be repaired, which I wasn't happy about.. Waited for his call for 2 weeks, called racv and repair centre a few times, who both said we're waiting for the assessor.. Told them not good enough escalated etc etc.. Then yesterday was on hold for 20 minutes (to be fair pretty much the only time I'd really been on hold) got disconnected at 20 minutes, was going to call back and lose my shit, 5 seconds later assessor calls and says it's a write off. Went to pick up my belongings that afternoon, and repair centre receptionist and guy managing my job both had no idea it'd been declared a loss as the assesor hadn't called yet, and they both made comments that lead me to believe he's pretty useless at calling people/customers back
  3. In other news, break even on 88E. should sell, next minute hits $2
  4. Ran over something, bent k frame bent transmission bracket, dented exhaust ripped the heat shield, slight gouge in the rear bar and probably broke some clips on the rear bar as it came out the back.. They said they were gonna fix it.. Few weeks later when it was supposed to be ready I get a call saying it damaged the floor and might be written off, 2 weeks after that it was gonna be repaired, another week or 2 later and it was written off... Damaged transmission tunnel etc etc
  5. Pretty straight for a write off. Been contemplating buying back, but don't think it'd be worth it unless I got it real cheap.. A wrecker would clean up on it as everything is only 20,000km old and pretty much immaculate, but for the work involved I don't think it's viable for me.. Big items would probably be easy enough to sell, engine transmission wheels hard lid etc, but the rest would take forever to sell to break even and then make some money, which probably wouldn't be enough to justify the effort
  6. Correct Actually put new tires on 2 days before the incident unfortunately.
  7. We'll probably get a better deal if we buy at the same time..
  8. Also, the universal symbol is a P, not an H
  9. Park brake would be the correct term. Covers the old school and new school which you'd have to call a finger brake because that's what's required to operate them
  10. Think its .034 or something.. For the amount of money tied up, I may as well keep it. If I sell it they'll cure cancer the next day and be worth $10 a share
  11. I don't think tv2 will ever make it to the green
  12. Still no point me selling unless I get into the green. Should've sold at 6.4 or whatever it hit last time, was the first time in the green since purchasing..
  13. In other share market news, whoever in here predicted sw1 to reach $1.50 mid year must be hoping for a late three fold increase
  14. Approaching break even on 88E. Catastrophic crash must be imminent
  15. HRE $2K USD per rim Yeah nah
  16. Last ones are practically identical to the ones I posted.. And yeah not looking to destroy ride quality so don't really need to go to 20s..improved offset / fitment should make a big improvement over the stockers
  17. Stock wheels are gloss black and I can see them just fine.. Could go matte but the gloss black seems to work pretty well currently. 20s max, 19 wouldn't look terrible either.. Want something that isn't a bitch to clean inside the barrel like the stockers.. Never really been a fan of lace/mesh style rims always been more of a 5/6 spoker, but feel free to post photos of whatever
  18. I mean I haven't seen any pictures of wheels on ve/vfs that I'd spend money on.. A mate suggested Madina track rims, 3 pieced and forged, haven't really been able to find pics of them on a vf Ute let alone a black one, but they didn't look amazing on another car I saw a photo of. X5 wheels look good on the car you posted, but not sure if it's lower than my car which always makes it look tougher, and whether or not it needed guard work to fit.. Would be going gloss black whatever rim I went.. Even the Madina, would have to order custom to get gloss black centres and lip
  19. Still struggling to find good looking wheels for a VF... Might need a new car.
  20. Friend of mine saw that douche on the 675.. The old viet guys were telling him to stop doing burnouts etc... He told them to f**k off back to Vietnam if they don't like it.. How's that going for ya champ?
