Nick! :wave:I a feeling you might end up joining us here with this one somewhere alone the line!!!Reg - not to sure which car I will end up in now - hit a bloody pot hole in the city this morning and did not only another tyre side wall - but both the left hand side tyres and think the front rim might been in a little bit of trouble... Not to sure if something went in the steering as well...Unbelievable that we still have roads like this in the CBD of the biggest city in Australia...Dam only got about 1,500Kms out of these ones as well..

smicky Go Pies!!! Donating Members 2,852 Member For: 16y 9m 13d Gender: Male Location: Vic Somewhere - Sometimes NSW Posted 26/10/09 10:15 AM Share Posted 26/10/09 10:15 AM Gents - never fear...First call was to GIO - just in case all else fails..Second to RTA - said yeah our fault... We will pay... But I knew better...Called Sydney City Council did the Mr Micky Professional thing - said no problems, just go fix what you need and send us the bill - here is a claim number... I then thought hhhmmm sewage lid - sydney water...Did the ring around and had the car checked - 2x new rims, 2x new tyres and about 3500$ bill so far...Called Sydney water after the Council boys called back and said - bud thanks so much that is one messed up hole... Here is the the reference number for Sydney water, and make sure you get stuck into them... call us if u need help... We have told them they MUST repair or cover with cover plate within 12 hrs. RTA has also spoken with them also...Call Sydney water and its starts - listen to them dribble crap, then simply said... Either you deal with me and pay up within 5 days, or GIO and legal representatives will be chasing for damages, loss of income, and all relevant costs...Email sent this evening and a phone call to take place tomorrow... so will see how we go...Pictures, car damage, RTA and Sydney Council all inspected the area today to plenty of reports about the poor road condition... 'should' be easy enough...I hope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
