Broken VAIN

pure guess work

repairs £1400?
Recovery £1200?

doesnt matter if the recovery was free, its still stings you gotta pay for repairs, especially on a well look after wagon.

keep smiling mate

sorry to hear all that’s gone on. Truck looked ok last night, see it regularly around A45/A14 junction in evening.

Glad to hear she’s back on the road Mr B!

maybe a shot in the dark here but if the recovery company damaged the light bar surely they’re liable to repair/replace it?

You have photo evidence of the damage after all.

Unfortunately the recovery company will not be liable for the damage, no harm in asking though.
Recovery cost, hoping I am optimistic for you Rob…£250

As far as the damaged bar is concerned i’m going to have to bite the bullet on that one. Would rather not say why but i will say that the recovery driver in my opinion did a fantastic job. The bill was £406 + vat which i considered very reasonable considering time of day. So anyone requiring recovery in east anglia i fully recommend Foulgers from Snetterton. Top job well done.

no wonder youre biting the bullet at that price, well cheap!!!
