As those who read my thread about a poxy white van man who clipped my bumper on Tuesday, well I can now add Poxy OAP!!!
Going into Sainsbury's this afternoon; go to turn right into a space, and whack!!! A silly sod has come forward from his parking space on my nearsideand scrapped his front bumber, with number plate down my rear passenger nearside door!!
He got out and said "so sorry, my foot slipped!!" "It is the first time, and I have been driving 60 years" !!!!!!!

Fortunately the OAP travelled at slow speed into my side, and caught more the plastic trim along the door, with gouges in the paintwork, but no dents!
Anyway I took down all his particulars and contacted my Insurance Broker, the AA, who gave me the option (yet again!!*) of going through the direct insurance company route - paying, claiming back my excess, arranging repairs, basic loan car, or going through
Claimfast who would arrange the collection of my car, its repair and return, whilst providing an equal loan car to my Elite. As before* I said "YES!!" to the second option!
All arranged already for my car to be collected on Monday, with the "prestige" loan car provided the same day. As damage should be speedily sorted out, my car should come back relatively quickly.
The OAP's insurance company rang up shortly after and accepted liability 8-) 8-)
*It was a year ago on the 4th October that my CDX was shunted up the back and eventually written off, and then the AA sent me to
Claimfast with me ending up with a Merc E320CDi for 6 weeks. Tremendous service, and made a drama enjoyable!
