hit and run westhaven drive


Recommended Posts

Leaving the rum race prizegiving we were hit badly by a charcoal coloured 4x4 driving towards the clubs, right outside sails restaurant.

 

Basically took the right side off my car, and bumper off theirs.

 

Sped off straight away.

 

Keep your eyes peeled folks, drunk drivers should be hung.

Luckily no injuries, but now I need to buy three new kiddy seats, and half an car

Sadly not, only got the right hand side.

 

Looks to my untrained eye like the one on a toyota Prado.

 

If there's any justice there'll be some big scrapes all the way along the drivers side.

 

Anyone know good panelbeaters?

Westhaven cameras might have caught it

Thats what I'm hoping.

 

Apparently either my insurance co or the police need to request it, I can't get the footage myself. Bit of a dumb rule imho, but never mind.

 

Looking closely under decent lights I may get away with just a bumper, wing, and headlight cluster, the rest of the panels look straight, albeit very marked.

 

Dammit I knew dropping down to 3PF&T on that car was a bad idea!

Turned out to be a moulded glass flared wheel arch, either old prado or bighorn by the shape of it. Still in perfect condition too, just ripped the screws out.

 

Thought I could list it on trademe, the idiot would be looking for one to replace it
