Car Just Written Off By Police... :(

Some sad news for Ford Lovers...

My beloved 92 EB Series 2 Fairmont was written off last Tuesday by an undercover policeman... To cut a long story short, I was driving round a bend on a 2 lane road that was cut down to 1 lane due to roadworks. I was driving behind a Subaru Forrester and then once the roadworks had finished I pulled into the left hand lane and was driving alongside the Suby. The police then decided to turn left from the right hand lane and obviously didn't see me. The Suby collected me just in front of my door and then we skidded next to each other for about 30 metres going over a gutter or two... The whole right hand side of the car is caved along with the front and rear bars, the bonnet, the bootlid, my ED XR6 grille, headlights, 2 ED XR8 rims, 2 tyres, numerous steering components and who knows what else...

The police have admitted fault so I'm waiting to get my payout. Just curious to know what I should be expecting in terms of a payout as everyone seems to have very differing opinions.

The car was silver, on LPG, 230,000kms, ED XR6 Grille and headlights, ED XR8 rims, good rubber, engine was ok, tranny was ok, interior was very clean. Let me know what you think people.

HRT R.I.P (as well as my EB)
