**natnat** · 19-08-2010 12:05 AM

accident occured Sunday 15th Aug 10, 3.10pm, location First Ave near Ryedale Rd intersection, Eastwood.

a scavenger truck suddenly veered to my lane...

written off as of today..

kind of needing a car immediately but to get a R it will be Jan / Feb 2011... GTI is couple of months away...

but a Luxury Sat Nav CU2 is available right now at around $46k drive away from Hornsby Honda.

pay out should be 29.5k per agreed value.. but feeling shortchanged because that agreed value was when the CL9 in stock condition. had since added Enkei PF01 + Conti Sports Contact 2 = $3600, Injen $600, Parking sensors $300, Buddyclub $1700.

Oh snap that is bad. I use that intersection everyday. Rydale/First. It can get pretty nasty if bad drivers are about.

Get a CU2,you will love it.

The new Golfs seem ro be plagued by rattles in their door trims and B pillars,so dont be upset about not getting one.

vwvortex and vwwatercooled forums are full of posts.

I am a VW person who changed to a CU2,and just love the refinement.

I feel your pain,my Jetta was written off by our hail storm a few months ago,but you too will get over your loss eventually.

Damn, that's bad..... Thankfully you are alright and the truck did not push you onto the oncoming lane of traffic.

Take a test drive of the CU2 first. They feel quite different to a CL9 in my opinion, but much more luxurious.
