Arrived back in the UK this morning and found my RRS waiting for me on the driveway. As you may remember I had a run in with a 'white van man' when I was last on leave.

Had a good crawl over her and can find no evidence of the accident and she still drives like a dream.

I have just spent the last 20 minutes installing a DC1 Road Hawk car mounted camera, which you don't even have to switch on as it starts recording when the ignition is turned on. I was really lucky (if you can call it that!) when the at fault driver admitted liability at the scene to both myself and the attending Police Officers. If he hadn't then it would have been a knock for knock accident as there were no independant witnesses.

Excellent service from 'The Accident Exchange' who handled my claim and supplied me with a like for like vehicle whilst mine was off the road. Great workmanship by Auto Crash Repairs of Bedford who I would recommend without hesitation. Crap service from Admiral Insurance who I had 4 cars insured with, and I have now moved them over to Direct Line.

Any way, alls well that ends well!

Jim I do hope you didn't accept a decent loaner while your car was being fixed. You do know that's why all our insurance premiums are going up, don't you? I hope you walked everywhere instead.
