Was driving to college today and a stone flew up from the JCB digging a hole by the side of the road (I think) and did this, wasn't a happy bunny. Admirals windscreen company can't come out to fix it until tomorrow either

Scared the s**t out of me when it happened :/. Was so loud D: At least it's covered by insurance excess (£70). Autoglass quoted me £487 if it wasn't through insurance lol.

crap luck. Can you not claim from the jcb company. Although proving it may be difficult.

Yeah proving it wouldn't be easy, so I just went on my way . They're coming between 9 and 1 tomorrow so i'll have to have an unpaid day off work too (no holiday left). ON THE UP SIDE. I've borrowed a set of alloys off my friend for a week, so I can swap them over, go and get the tyres off mine, and take them for refurbing / painting! If I have the time I might try and get my calipers painted ;D.

At least none of the car was scratched . Wish someone could have recorded the scream I probably let out on impact . Sounded like a gun shot LOL.
