Introduction or Good bye??

i think you need to clarify what your talking about with reference to the insurance. If you were in the process of paying off your insurance, and this payment schedule was WITH KNOWLEDGE AND APPROVAL OF THE INSURER, then all you will need to do is pay it and they will allow you to claim.

If you were fart arsing around and just didnt pay it that aint the insurers fault.

nonetheless, sorry about your loss man, hope you get her looking the way it was

yea had some conflict with that insurance issue...the issue was the company trying to make excuses to compensate for their losses/future loss.
they did it to my friend as well...his in the same situation as me...
but yea...not to worry...im over that now...just keen on fixing up the aesthetics atm.

also many insurers do not cover for flood damage.

my teg only just made it through the flood, i had water over my bonnet when a bus went past and sent a giant bow wave hurling around.

commodores floating away. forresters stuck. my da9...unbeatable. i love my car.

now that you have a stripped interiour why dont u leave it stripped. light weight ftw!! hehe.

[jwai]

hahaha take her to the drag strip...
i wonder how it would go.lol.
how did your da9 make it....water came through my dc4 like i was some sort of drain...hmmm interesting...
ah well...

[Mr_will]

absolutely no idea mate...i have some wet carpet in the passenger footwell but other than that i am pretty ok.

i was fortunate that traffic was moving at an ok pace so i wasnt stopped in the water - i have no doubt that if i had stopped moving it wouldve all been over.

im gonna hire a steam cleaner in a week or so to get the smell out i reckon. if you need someone to give you a hand with your interior shoot me a pm

hey man,
thats shit how she got caught, you went to my school last year, i always like the look of your car.

Hopefully u can get her all up and running again and this weather will piss off!

So sorry to hear your story...
just wondering... what does GIO mean by - 'in the progress of paying off for comp insurance'? U r paying by the month?

If you have paid any premium (even as instalments) you should be able to appeal for the cover.

Wish u good luck!

another update...
so last night .. we spent about 3 hours with the air compressor...we used it to clear out any remaining water within the electrical connectors...the main job last night was on the piston sockets...we put the air compressor down there and blew out a tonne of water lol...
this morning .. we went through the same drill...again working on the connectors...
by this time...the battery was fully charged so it was time to test the electronics!!...the battery is going in right this minute!!....

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....dash lights...head lights.....how the f***? i dont know..lol..
that annoying warning beep that sounds when the door is still open never sounded so good lol.

so now its midday....we have changed the oil and replaced the oil filter...unfortunately, the cai was wrecked so i had to replace it with the stock intake system. dam!!...
its time to give her a whirl....

IT CRANKED!!!!! fully sick! and then it just literally threw up hahaha. my car just spurted out about 3L of water from the exhaust which really looked funny...hmmm interesting...
so atm, my electronics are surprisingly working....the engine, even more surprisingly, is cranking....
its kool cuz it sounds like some muscle car atm...hahah

thanx again for the words...i'll keep it updated...
