Don't Crash Your T6...

[TonyMax]

Or if you do don't bend the front.

I've just been told that there's no stock of front bumper covers or headlights for T6 in Australia and there will be at least a 3 week wait to get my vehicle back from the repairers.

Couple this with no hire car on my insurance policy and a no from VW about a loan car and I am in some trouble with work.

Not really good enough Volkswagen Australia, I would have thought that bumpers and headlights should be always in stock.

Poor form from VW!

If you aren't at fault you are still entitled to a rental...

Not with Shannons you're not, no rental cars on their car insurance, I will be shopping around when this claim is complete.

If you aren't at fault you can use a company like 1car1 and they take care of all the expenses and follow it up with the at fault drivers insurance.

They unfortunately can't chase costs from the kangaroo I hit .

get a bumper from the wreckers to stick on while you're waiting?

jeez, can't imagine what Shannons premium would have been, their quote for my Polo was double what I went with from AAMI

...or could it be that your crash repairer and insurance company don't want to use a new part?
I was lied to by crash repairer when I needed tailgate only to find out that the new part is expensive and they're waiting for a secondhand part.

It might be worth to check the stock and not relaying on your repairer.

I've been assured that only new genuine parts are to be used, which means another radiator with plastic tanks that only has to look closely at a kangaroo to render the van undriveable .

Oh how I would love to fit an aluminium radiator.

Didn't you fit a bull bar? or were you looking at it.

Still a bull bar and a skippy meeting still stuffs the front end.

unless its a bullbar on a Mack
