A couple of days back a van hit my car (Perodua Axia) in the back when the car was in the traffic. It knocked 3/4 times and looks like the guy kept accelerating instead of braking. Just at the same time I felt my (driving) seat moved a slightly down and I thought one of the tires might have punctured or blown. That wasn't the case though. While the back door is damaged, the bottom panel also seemed to be crushed a bit. The garage guys (at the company) have assured there's nothing wrong with the chassis or the shocks. Vehicle is yet to be fixed but I am concerned about what could've happened to the drive seat area. I am sure of it because the rear view mirror is not at the correct position as it was before and also the eco mode indicator below the speedometer isn't visible to me when I sit and drive in the usual position.
Anyone has an idea about this or having any sort of experience?
Officially joined the thel-hinganna normie horde with ....drumroll... a 2025 Vezel... I am eagerly anticipating joining the 'thel keeyak karanawada' debates at almsgivings.
Recently, got the opportunity to see and get inside of The one and only Japanese V12, Toyota Century(a.k.a Japanese Rolls Royce). Is it really upto Rolls Royce standards? Nope, I don't think so. Items like Switches and mirror housings are in plastic. But, we can be assured that the dashboard will not light up like Christmas and would run forever....
...and just like that from having parking space issues a few month's back I'm car-less.
The cost of renting something for a month or two (even more - personal imports have been quite messy of late) made me wonder if it actually makes sense to buy a quickly disposable car and get rid of it in a couple of months - but it seems the 'popular' models aren't moving. A few messages to sellers (registered owners) on marketplace resulted in them sending me daily price reduction updates.
Sleepless nights have begun. I'm twisting between SL320 and SL500. Should I just pay additional 2000 euros more and go for the SL500 and go broke or settle with a SL320?

Hi,
A couple of days back a van hit my car (Perodua Axia) in the back when the car was in the traffic. It knocked 3/4 times and looks like the guy kept accelerating instead of braking. Just at the same time I felt my (driving) seat moved a slightly down and I thought one of the tires might have punctured or blown. That wasn't the case though. While the back door is damaged, the bottom panel also seemed to be crushed a bit. The garage guys (at the company) have assured there's nothing wrong with the chassis or the shocks. Vehicle is yet to be fixed but I am concerned about what could've happened to the drive seat area. I am sure of it because the rear view mirror is not at the correct position as it was before and also the eco mode indicator below the speedometer isn't visible to me when I sit and drive in the usual position.
Anyone has an idea about this or having any sort of experience?
Thanks in advance.
