Guys,

need suggestions, my beloved GPX 95 car is now a write off, from an accident where not my fault got sandwiched by someone hitting me from the rear.

Insurance has agreed its a write off, but no settlement price yet.

the rear is totally smashed and bent inwards. The front is smashed but i believe the engine is in good shape, auto gear box all good condition, only <130,000km.

i m in sydney, any suggestion of wreck yard and also anyone wants to get it and take away, name your price?? i dont have time to sell the parts on its own.

cheers,

when

If its a write off the insurance company will own it and im sure its worth more for insurance money then it is as a wreck

How much do you have the car value set at with the insurance company

I spoke to the insurance already, they will provide me with the market value price. I will still have the right to the car.

I will try to post some pics early next week. though not sure how to do it yet.

the car is with a smash repairer property at the moment at Campsie region.

keep you guys inform, and will PM.

^^ Damn that's a good deal, your insurance company is nuts!!

Who were you insured with lol!

Do you have any pics? Might be interested in some of the bits if you decide to part it out. You will make a lot more out of it by parting it out then selling the whole thing. And if you've got the time it can be fun stripping her back. You learn a lot about how they go together ;)

Shane,

i agree with you i will get more out of it....but i dont have the time or the space to do all that. The engine parts and other accessories worth hell more, than what i going to get paid from the wreckers...

i m insured with Just Car third party, but NRMA is paying me for the write off.

PM me with your email or number. or SMS me, i can send/email you the pic, i going over to the smash repairer today where i have park the car at CAMPSIE.
But i need to get rid of it by the weekend.
