Ouch! Glad you're Ok though.
I dunno what year your Jeep is, but maybe you could have a word with these people - the auction is for the headlight, but they say they're breaking it, and the front end looks all the same shape as yours:

Some clown in a black cab decided to pull out onto a mini-roundabout I was already on. It's going through insurance. The headlamp's swinging in the breeze - mountings have broken, but the light itself is fine. Most of the damage is to the plastic trim, but the front wing's slightly off line - bracket's been bent.
Drove home, but I can see the headlamp going AWOL if i go over a speed bump, so I'll be on the train to work until I get my courtesy car. |

Assuming US insurance: at minimal $3000 worth of damages. Front bumper cover , all the assorted brackets, the seal on the headlamp is probably bad so that needs replacing, grille, hey is that a fog lamp, need one of those too, fender an hood re-alignment (thought he shop will probably attempt to get that on teh estimate as well, turn lamp and brackets associated, airbag sensor might have to be looked at (if it was over 15 mph it should have deployed), hopefully the front crossmember is ok.
I'm guessing two weeks in the shop. |

^^^ UK insurance. It'll just go straight into the repairers & let the insurers get on with it. Impact was probably less than 10mph. Should get a courtesy car (I'll be pushing them for an auto - ages since I've driven a manual (stick shift to you)). Main concern is going to be getting hold of parts - when I bought it last year, one of the mirror motors was dead - took over a month to get the part from the US. I'm fully expecting a call from a solicitor in the next couple of days to check if I have any injuries. Must admit to having a headache. |

I imagine they'll charge shiping as well, adding to the cost! Surprised there's no dealers on mainland Europe... |

quick look on google brings up lots of hits for used parts & breakers. Should be some dealers somewhere I suppose. |

^^ Don't think I haven't considered that!
Was expecting a call from the insurers this morning. Rang them last night to inform them of the accident. Despite the fact I've had the policy for over a month, I'm apparently not on their database yet (!) - something about an I.T. problem. Hadn't heard anything so I rang again about an hour ago.
'sorry sir, we can't find the details of your claim'
so they put me back through to the claims registration line. Apparently the details aren't on the claims system yet, because of a 'long term I.T. issue'
So how long will that take to fix?
'Don't know sir'
How long will it take for a claim handler to contact me?
'Don't know sir'
OK, so I'd like to register a formal complaint.
'Can't do that here sir - you need to ring our complaints helpline on 0845xxx xxxx'
Rang complaint helpline - on hold for 12 minutes.
'Yes sir, we'll pass that on to someone senior in the claims department'
So when will I be contacted?
'Don't know sir'
Methinks they've been reading Eater U. |

The good thing about Jeeps is that they're built like tanks so you're pretty sure to get out of an accident as long as you don't hit anything bigger than a bulldozer.
I've had 3 of them. A 4.7 Grand Cherokee (that got nicked and ended up as a getaway car in a robbery in another country), a limited edition 4.0 Cherokee (also moved like shit off a shovel but you could actually watch the needle on the fuel gauge go down as you drove it) and a Special Edition Wrangler Sport (which I've still got but will probably sell in the near future).
I like 'em. Even if they are American. |

To be honest, it wasn't even on my list when I was looking for a replacement vehicle last year. Looked at a Nissan X-Trail (previously had a Terrano) but didn't like it - too many buttons & knobs. Jeep was sitting in a corner covered in snow, decided I'd have a look & immediately fell for it. It's a 2.8CRD - I'd hate to think what the running costs for the petrol version would be
Love the transmission system - it's got the older selec-trac transfer box (2wd, p/t 4wd high, p/t 4wd low & full time 4wd). One of the few vehicles which coped with the snow & ice up here last winter. Had fun last Saturday coming down an iced over cobbled path.
I'd definitely consider another one if/when this one retires. |

Always good for a laugh when the local rozzers stop you at midnight, as a friend of mine found out after giving me a lift home. Given a choice of believing him or their database as to whether he was insured or not, he was dragged off to the cells. |

^^ I had a minor panic about that when they told me, but they assured me I'm on the main system which the police use - just not on their internal system!
Think they're baiting me! |

If you're having problems with a help-desk have a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Khlc07U_oc
You may not fully understand it as they're Belgians <strike>(hell, even the Dutch don't fully understand those guys)</strike>, but the fun starts at 1:15.
These guys are annoyed at the bad service by helpdesks and go for revenge.
They deliver a container (with their number on the side) to the entrance of a help desks parking lot and wait till security calls them. When security calls, they give them the full help-desk service
EDIT: I'm watching this again... These guys are asking the company for customer numbers and playing (and singing!) their own waiting music |

^^ I can categorically state that I've never been b******d!
Complaining works - in the last 2 hours the insurance company called & took the claim details (properly this time), got a call from a garage (in Liverpool! - do they know I support MUFC? ) & organised a hire car (asked for an Aston Martin DB9 but I'm not hopeful).
Just hope they take good care of Chiefy. |
