teeg Member 372 Member For: 19y 11m Location: SA Posted 17/08/06 07:04 AM Share Posted 17/08/06 07:04 AM Got home yesterday after some gusty winds here in Adelaide only to find the roller door on the carport had been blown off its tracks and flapping in the wind all day up against the T. Now the bumper, boot, trim above the number plate, left hand tail light and spoiler are all scratched to buggery. All covered by Insurance but of course the insurance companys says I claim on the house insurance for roller door and the car insurance for the damage to the car, I bet just so they can double dip on the excess. Furthermore, the door is now jammed on it's tracks and I can't get the car out until I unbolt the track and the dog was running loose all day. I'm glad there were a few bourbon cans in the fridge.

teeg Member 372 Member For: 19y 11m Location: SA Posted 17/08/06 07:36 AM Author Share Posted 17/08/06 07:36 AM The excess on the house is about $100 and the car about $400, so the car excess not as bad as some, but there's another delay to the custom tune. Not sure as to the speed of the wind as I was at work, but must have been pretty damn strong.Bloosted, sorry to hear about the fairlane, that's not good either, but you gotta be happy with the Matrix, awesome machine you picked up there. I hoping to be able to go for a run this season, I am still suffering injuries from a car accident (not the BA) back in April so I am hoping to be on the mend by then.
