Crap, will insurance cover that?

Only had third party on it and at the moment trying to find out WHO owns the tree, whether it is the council or RTA. They have insurance for these sorts of things..... they are up to $9000 worth of damage with the quote and i'm without a car

Too me its looks hes hit tree

In the situation, if it were good or bad conditions i still was gunna hit the tree.

it landed about 2 feet in front of the car and there is no way i was going to prevent the accident.

And for once a skyline driver (me) wasn't in the wrong, not to affend anyone but as soon as someone sees a skyline in an accident who do people think are in the wrong?

ouch

sorry to hear that, find out whos tree it was and there property insurance should cover it

happened to a mate about 2 yrs ago and the owner of the house coughed up.

oh one more thing

It will buff right out :sorcerer:

One problem with someone coughing up is that the RTA or council who are government are gunna take there sweet ass time and hope that i get the shits and pay for it myself,,, which is a problem because i am still paying it off and on apprentice wages...... pritty shit hey

By the way heres a pic of the tree itself.

As you can see the bastard had rotted out

so was it on council/government land or in someones property.

Council. i'm sorry it may take a while

someone house/property: knock on the door get a police report and call your insurance co so they can help you persue the claim (even third party they should still try and help out)

it may be an RTA road, but do the RTA own the property where the tree was planted?

If the tree was planted on council property, it's the councils repsonsibility.

Thats the hard part to find out because as soon as you talk to someone in the rta or council they automatically think they can talk you down and turn you away so easy....... its really giving me the shits

Your insurance isn't willing/able to fix the car and chase it up on your behalf without any cost to you?

    • Well, in the same way that you can't tell any SUV from any manufacturer in any size category from any other one, "sports" coupes now all look identical. Stand back and squint your eyes and the Supra and the 400Z and the GR/BRZ things all look the same. I was just thinking last night, when sitting behind a Subaru CrossTrek, that I have no idea what it is, how it differs from an XV, or a Forester, or an Outback, or anything else Subaru offer, and I couldn't tell if it was supposed to be small, medium or large. I contrasted that to the good old days, where a HQ Kingswood had familial similarities to an LJ Torana, but there is no way that you could confuse them, and how a bit later, the HX Kinger and the concurrent Torana and the Gemini all had familial similarities, but you still could not confuse them. Ditto the ugly Fords and Chryslers of the era. But now, a RAV4 looks like a Kluger, looks like a Yaris/Cross/whatever they're calling those stupid f**king things, looks like every other Toyota that's not a Camry/Corolla sedan.
    • The Prelude doesn't look that bad without all that lens distortion in those pics. Makes it look disproportionate when it isn't. Actually I kind of liked it at the Osaka Auto Messe earlier this year. 
    • Pour in the highest octane, non-ethanol fuel you can get and see if the readout changes. If it's dead bang on 11% then I would question the sensor. Another quick test, just take it out and run normal (in an american accent) gas-o-line through it and see if the sampled ethanol or lack of changes.   United E85 here in the land of drop bears does vary a bit, I've had as high as E87 (could be water in their tanks too, who knows)
    • Yep. And if you ever do, you'll just have to deal with it then.
    • E10 is pretty tightly regulated in percentage. Too much and engines can't adapt. Every incentive is against them to have too little ethanol though. The more ethanol the higher the octane.
