Nice to know how safe the CJ is. It's a great thing the airbags still deployed when the car hit the tree; the user manual said they may not inflate in such situation.

Sorry for the trauma and I know how attached you are to your car. Don't worry, insurance will replace it and with a little more effort, you can come up with the same customisations you've done before.

Sad to hear your misfortune. As most have commented, as long as your alright to drive another day, thats the main thing!

Know we sometimes may have an emotional connection with our machines, but end of the day its served its purpose.

We have the technology, we can rebuild it. :wink:

Damn! Sorry to hear about the car, but the most important thing is that you are safe. Can always get a new car, but not a new body =)

Chin up mate! Your new baby will be here soon =P

Don't get a VR Platinum!!!! They are trying to rip you off!! VRs are below the VRX on the food chain!

DEMAND a VRX and VRX only. Or an Aspire if no VRX is available. Aspire would be nice lol

Yes but THEY are paying for it, so THEY must give you a VRX as a minimum. They are just trying to GET OUT OF IT CHEAP, as insurance companies do. And they see you as a 17YO so they think you won't notice :wink:

Just called my dealer here in Melbourne and there are still VRXs in the system so surely they can get one.

And if they cant get you a VRX demand a ralliart!!!

Not trying to rub it in or anything, but why arent they replacing your wheels? NRMA in NSW now cover your car no matter what as long as it is legal up to agreed value.

I think it is crap that you spend money enhancing your car and they wont cover it... then on top of that try to jib you by giving you a lower model!!
