So, there I was watching TV last night minding my own business. I'd left my Galant outside in the street instead of on the driveway - suddenly BANG! I ran to the window, lots of folk were on the pavement, cars still passing, outside. Upon further investigation, a cyclist rode full speed into the back of my parked car!
He was blinded by the stingingly bright sun - the resulting damage is below. His helmet saved him, just a graze to his eye. Bumper and boot lid knackered - his front tyre and wheel were fine, not even buckled!
He's admitted responsibility, so off to Mitsubishi later for a quote on bumper, boot lid, spray job, etc. I reckon I'll be around £2.5 > £3k. A boot lid was, from memory £800 + VAT many years ago, plus fitting, parts (locks, etc) swapped over and without paint and preparation.
Anyway, every one is fine - I'll be claiming from his insurance, be it bike insurance, contents insurance, motor insurance - or plain cash. :-)
