you know how to rub salt in the wounds hands. H was gutted that the insurance company wanted so much to buy it back. how much did you pay for it out of interest ( pm me if you dont want it to be common knowledge).
is that your bodyshop by the way? looks a nice job.

I was also interested in the salvage of this car, but as said, the insurers started taking the pish with the salvage value and the storage fees

who offered you the car hands? i buy salvage and usually have to buy from auction. did you get offered it direct from the insurance company?
i think they wanted @ £1400 from howard for it by the time they had added storage charges to it. i seem to remember saying that they wouldnt get anywhere close to that if it went to auction so i couldnt understand why they wouldnt waive the storage and save themselves the trouble. oh and the buyback figure for the car before storage was more than you paid too

the insurance company will normally pay 4 all the storage & recovery charges,the only time u will have to pay storage recovery charges is if u neva had insurance and the police recovered the car,qoute me if im wrong
p.s im sure they offered the car too him 4 £600,then they pushed the price up 2 £900?n he then refused the car ? he did say he try'd 2 get it bk but they kept pushing the price up,some insurance company's are funny like that,normally its about 10%(14 %) to buy it back from the pay out price example £10.000 buy back price would be £1000.
