Heh, yes, the insurance finally paid off.... but they couldn't economically fix *that* XKR.
Yeah it sucks. Living in New York City and having a car is probably not the best thing in the world. At least you have the convenience of having a parking space after 6PM I have to move the car every morning and worry about the kids down the block playing stick ball and usingmyMY PARENTS car as third base.
After I scratched the car, I talked to L & M Foreign cars (http://www.landmforeigncars.com/) and they recommended me to another place to get the scratched looked at. The body shop guy said told me what I'm about to tell you: "I can get that fix that for you, but chances are you're going to get about a hundred more. You'll just be wasting your time getting such a small thing fixed." So, rather than losemyMY PARENTS car for a day and spending about $200 to have 2 scratches fixed, I just bought some touch up paint and covered it up.
Ever since then,myMY PARENTS car has been keyed (again), someone clippedmythe driver side mirror (I folded it up thank god), the front bumper has receive a few scratches from people backing up a little too much while parallel parking, and the list continues on.
Personally, I don't think it's that bad, could get a lot worse, and probably represents the first of many dings and scratches your beloved Audi will receive. If you choose to get it fixed, talked to the guys at L & M cars. They're honest people and will definitely help you out.
*sigh* The joys of living in New York City.
Rage.. Muder.. Hate.. Kill.. Everyone..
lol, my car caught fire (flames, smoke, the works) when my dad was driving it a couple of weeks ago.
So i need to take the car in for service and i just made an appointment with a local dealer who will also look at the dent...I got a few estimates from local "ding fixers" and they are asking for 175 bucks! Thats insane so hopefully the dealer will be a bit better...although i seriously doubt it.
My dads basically not going to pay for it...hes been kinda avoiding me and the situation...strange thing cuz i haven't been really running into him and he left for work without saying bye today. Or maybe its all in my head... Anyways, if you met my dad you will know that he wouldn't pay for it...i had family and friends tell me that my dad acts younger and more childish then me.
Come to america Lilleput...i know a kid who just got a 08' BMW 335xi coupe...whos friend just got an Audi S4...they are both 16.:lol:
