Parked outside work I have had some idiot lorry driver reverse into it...to be fair he was ok about it and put his hands straight up to it..but I am so mad

First new car I have ever had and this happens

Hmm, so not TOOO bad then, you should get it sorted, but its sooo annoying when you have damage due to someone elses fault.

That'll polish out...

At least the damage isn't too bad. Has the lorry driver agreed to pay cash for the repairs or is it still going through the insurance?

Nah going through insurance...can't be doing with the hassle..and as I'm not to blame and they have admitted liability it wont be to my cost fingers crossed.

Yeah, if its all through their insurance then it shouldn't affect you or your no-claims. Only problem is that it could take a while before it gets sorted, unless you're prepared to pay out yourself and then claim the money back from their insurance.

A mate of mine got hit in his car, the woman (typical...) admitted all liability and it went through her insurance, but it still took well over a month before he got his car back.

Fair enough, hope they can get it fixed quickly. Seems like quite a few people have been having little dings in their car lately...
