Thread: She's had her first hit and run

...or insurance scallywaggery.

Imagine what our world might be without the conditioned and forced upon ideals of false insurance policies and subsequent claims - and associations with financial/banking criminal elements.

Have to take umbrage with this one Dick. Surely it depends on the type of car.

Reckon it's one of those.

Will it go up? Had three claims last year and insurance premium actually went down this year.

This one had me (literally) fall out of my chair the 1st viewing...

Insurance here is a bit different.

Mate took out a few bystanders on his new motorbike. Coppers and everyone else's eyes lit up. Had first class insurance but no driving license.

Insurance got on the scene and covered his ass completely. Decent bail bond (a few hundred K) so the coppers didn't even bother once that came out from the insurance guy. All the fake claims were dropped and the insurance covered all the damage that was done.

All for a guy with no driving license.

All about the cash-in-hand, innit?

The second pic didnt really need the pink outliner did it?

Dill, what a misleading title. Thought the wife got frustrated with you and hit you with a frying pan, then took off and ran. My mind must be playing tricks on me.

Nah, just depends on the type of car door...

my mea noi doing donuts in our 'tight' car park...mischievous little minx she is...



I gave her a right seeing to for her impetuousness

Mate, I know we all free to make our choices and such, but isn’t that one a bit underage?

^^^ A Thai pointing would have been better.

Brasso is a good cheap cutting paste.

Depends on what the paint finish is.

If it's just an acrylic colour ... maybe go for it.

But if it's metallic paint (or even some of the colour coats) with a clear varnish as the top coat, which many/most cars are nowadays ... then Brasso is not that answer.


BTW, I'm not a spray Painter, but my mate is and have spent a bit of time in his shop.

That's the car she hit

This is her car

she did quite well actually, probably not worth fixing-it's not gonna rust

Wait to see on youtube tomorrow maybe have news...

^ And that's why I've disguised the paintwork

Dill that damage is minimal, probably looking at a bit of panel beating and a respray of the door skin. Ballpark 5 or 6k Baht if you keep your white face out of the negotiations .

My Missus had similar damage to the near side rear guard in her car years ago after a hit and run in some supermarket car park, and she was the one who did the hitting and running!. So no worries, the car's insured just get it fixed. "Cannot use insurance!, they will want police report" I'm informed. So off to a local body shop we go where she feels it necessary to inform Somchai the estimator that someone hit her car while she was shopping .

Anyway, 5200 Baht and 4 days later any evidence was gone.

Dil if you have top cover keep the cash & let ghe insurance guy do there job.
I have been driving for 13 years no claim the last year 5 claims

No change in cost of insurance but did change the car as blue is not a good colour.
