My car has been hit outside, its snowed again here, the guy slammed on his brake at top of hill and went straight into mine.

Will post pics soon

But need advce as always

I had it on Third Party, Fire and Theft with Motor Legal Cover all with Direct Line.

What would this mean, not being my fault, my car being parked and neighbour as witness and him admitting fault?

Confusedhock: :crying:

Aaarrgh, bad luck mate :crying:

But if you've got a witness then that's great, though you shouldn't need it really since you were parked up so the insurance company will know it's the other guy's fault.

It should all be covered by his insurance.

I wish, wont get much paid out for the car, think it will be write off due to what its worth, have no overtime money as thats gone on credit cards and wife and kids holiday to Pakistan (she not seen her family for 5 years !)

Not sure what Im going to do if they write it off
