I'm guessing you were parked with your wheels at an angle? Seem thats the only way it could've been knocked like that?
Well thats the difference, your claim was already proven to be the 3rd oarty at fault, while you were phoning around for a new quote (contradicted yourself within Two sentences)!
It could happen, if Insurance renewal was due before the Claim was at the stage where the driver at fault was ascertained. If the 3rd party admitted liability at the scence then no worries - but how often does that happen (unless its blatantly obvious).
no i was parked with my wheels straight
Not even slightly Just can't imagine how it was hit to send it at such and angle and hardly damage the paint.
Tis painful to look at
looks like the tie rod is bent - possibly internal damage to the rack too
whatever you do - make sure of whats replaced and 4 wheel alignment etc
My insurance is protected but had heard that it can still affect my insurance even though it blatantly wasn't my fault. I know i'm a female - but i can actually park with my wheels straight to the curb.
But if worst comes to the worst honey you can always borrow my car as your on my insurance
If you've got good insurance the company you use should realise the situation and help you sue the crap out of the idiot who did that to your car!
Guy.

I hope they are good seeing as they are advertising on the forum.
I never really understood taxi's...the whole idea of paying for someone to drive you around is fickle....they should do it for free
