Hey Roo, I've got a great conveyancer who can settle properties in under 2 wks which is usually faster than a bank can register and prepare docs (quickest time was 8 days but banks won't move quicker than that). You've got to be prepared to play courier boy though.

If you ever need another conveyancer again, PM me.....he's cheap to.

[SLED]

ahhh the guy who hit my car and never paid me for the damages lives out there. he threatend to get a restraining on me he i kept bothering him about the money. could be a good reason to head down there.

Kye, if you've already sent the guy a letter of demand and still no luck, go to magistrates court in Vic Square and organize a summons (between $50 - $80).

If I go to Wallaroo & Kadina, I'll serve him for you at no cost (and give him a piece of your mind).

When he goes to court he'll pay all costs and you'll also recover the summons fee (as long as you can prove you were in the right).

If he doesn't show, magistrate can make a judgement and rule without him....usually in your favour.

Just saw a VERY NICE red RX7 FD shape on ten news... being reposessed - apparently bikie drug bust they raided multiple homes etc

[craig R33]

pete, im sort of in the same boat.

i got hit in my VT, i had 3rd party only, he had no insurance.

repair bill for my car was 5.5g, my insurance agreed to only pay 3 thousand.

they where going to recover the full amount for repair + excess off of him, and forword the

2.5 thousand that i had to pay out of my own pocket once he pays.....

he hasnt even started to pay them back yet, and i am no longer insured by this particular company.

this was over 2 years ago now,

where do i stand? and what can i do to get my money back?

[DSTROY]

Just got off the phone with shaun at bootworks, they advised me my car has been tuned.......

296.7 rwkw's at 17psi not bad for a GTR with just basic mods (filters, exhaust and N1 turbos)

Thats pretty good mate, mine makes 284 rwkw, but my standard injector are at 100%

thanks for that pete.

it happened awhile ago and i didnt bother with a police report as he was a friend of a friend and i have witnesses to it as well. he backed a trailer into the front of my car when it was parked at mallala race track in the pits.

the damage wasnt very costly but that wasnt the point. the point was i let him off with it and didnt report him (even though he didnt come up to me and say sorry, flick went and got him. i dont think he was going to confess to it untill he found out there was witnesses) then went and threatend me about asking for him to repay for the damages.

i pretty much let it go as he lives out in the sticks but i might make a few phone calls and f**k his week up in return to messing me around!

thanks again pete!!!

[Chris#3]

wow Kye, he still hasn't paid you? That happened ages ago. Let me know if you want me to be a witness in court.

Craig, you say you only had 3rd Party yet they gave you money for your car???

Don't think there's a 'statute of limitations' but you'll still be quizzed as to why it wasn't a priority earlier and what's changed to make it important now.

Also no point in going to court without all appropriate documentation, i.e. original copy of 'letter of demand', original quotes for repair, all liaison with previous insurance company and monies already paid, witness statements, an accurate recollection of dates and events, etc, etc.

If you do still decide to go down that road, I'll serve him for you at no charge also.

[craig R33]

Thanks pete,

they gave me the 3 grand beacause it was an ''extended poilicy'' through RAA.

thats all i was entitled to if damage to my vehicle occured, from an uninsured driver.

which in my case, happened.

the reason i have left it so late, is because i was leaving it inRAA's hands, and now it seems they have put it on the bottom of the pile i supose, maybe because i am no longer a customer.

only documentation i have is my police report number, and my qoution/reciepts etc.

he did not make a police report.

i should also mention that he was 100% at fault...

he rear ended me at 65 kph while i was stationary at a train crossing

[SLED]

wow, that's a good insurance company then.

shouldn't matter that you're no longer with them, you paid their premium back then.

If you still have an accurate recollection of events and dates, it's really up to you whether you feel like going thru with it again.

[DSTROY]

I put a deposit on a GTR interior last night, was way to cheap to pass up now a just have to get around to pulling it out of the guys car

[craig R33]

yeah i have an accurate recollection of what happened.

i might just give RAA a call tomorrow, to see where he is at.

if he has started to make payments since last time i called them

then ill leave it at that.

this money will come in handy to us at the moment.

ill keep you posted pete, thanks mate.

ps, any chance i could have a look at the mag in which your bike graces the cover?
