Surely you have to do this through insurance, Aj?
It's going to cost a shit load otherwise, versus a few hundred quid excess? Is it protected NCB?

bad luck mate - I think you would be best off claiming on the ins
I was in London on Monday
saw a lorry trying to get past a legally parked DB9
when we got back to the office we were told the driver had taken out the side of the Aston and driven off...

If i can claim off the insurance i might as well (i will enquire tomorrow).
I'll have to tot up the costs and see how much my insurance will cost 'roughly' year and see if its worth it.
Ouch thats got to be expensive esp for an Aston.

you might lose (or they will raise the premium) 20-30% of your NCB plus your excess
but I doubt that will come to £3K
, I will enquire tomorrow it might not end up as painful as i think, hopefully.

How gutting for you. A long shot but keep an eye open to see if any of the neighbours have a camera system. I'm guessing that you can pin the time of the damage down quite tight.
And check your policy, i know that Direct Line now include vandalism cover which does not hit your NCB.

Thats really bad gutted for you. Insurance is an option but it will cost you for years on premiums :-(
Goes to show that not everyone is as honest as you would like.

I had a £45K claim (around £60K when you added other bits) following a Ferrari total loss theft claim and burglary
my premium went up by around £200 pa (I never protect my NCB)
within a couple of years I was back to max ncb
my home insurance went DOWN

****** shitheads..
hope the ins sort it mate, we had a cockend run into the vec but the damage was really minor, he refused to enter a claim. the missus ended up having a go at me, she wouldnt let me beat his head in.
in retrospect it's £100 worth and it would have been nasty, i hate people who dont take responsibility for their actions.
