Question what would you do?

ok i posted b4 about my accident, dat happened on dec.4th. now its jan. 27th still i have no evo. i got parts for it but no car. its not the dealerships fault for taking so long. its da other person's insurence. i don't know how they can't find the dealer ship its right down the street from them. now its in the repair shop. i told myself the slightest bit of a vibration i am bringing it back. i werk in a bmw shop and there are people who complain about the cars they have and end up getting new ones??? should i complain and make the other insurence pay for a new one for me? please help me if you can. i tried to sue for her to pay the first month but my lawyer said he tried but lost a case like this in the past. so what would you do?

I thought you're suppose to get your insurance within 30 days by law?

Get another lawyer, he's obviously incompetent if he says he lost cases with insurance companies.

if u can get a new one, go for it but i doubt it unless the total amount of damage exceds an amount the insurance wont pay. I dont know how bad the damage but most likely from the way it sounds its not so just keep pushing and maybe even think about getting a lawer. Seems when u get one of them things tend to go/move alot faster. Just a thought, but it might work if u dont mind paying some $.

I got into a little bender today myself. Luckily I went with State Farm. I cannot express how professional, friendly, and speedy they were. Filing the claim took less time than a sheriff to arrive to the scene. In fact I called the sheriff, filed a claim, called the dealership, called for a tow, all before the police arrived. State Farm practically had all the details worked out with the dealership before I arrived with the car. Got the estimate later today, parts were ordered and I should be on my way in less than 2 weeks. I can't say enough good about this dealership and State Farm.

I know what you mean about not having the Evo around. I'm out of commission for 2 weeks.

Ice/roadsalt/cold tires into the back of another car at 10 FRIKIN mph. What's the latest on your ride? Totaled I assume? Time for an 05 or maybe drive a beater till the IX is released this fall. I've been playing Need For Speed Underground 2 lately and I get sad everytime a Lancer flies by now.
