My MINI got creamed last night. I left it sitting in a gas station parking lot and someone backed into my driver side door. Then they drove off. I can still open the door but it is pushed in pretty good.

Luckily the gas station had cameras and the fellon was easily found. He lived only a few miles away. I would post a pic but it's raining.

Does anyone know what a new door cost?

 

Very sorry to hear about it. I expect the felon's or your insurance company take care of you. Your video evidence will be rock solid in terms of getting his insurance company to pay. Wish I had that in the past.

Will the police charge him with a crime?

 

I'm so sorry to hear about this hit and run incident. It happen to my girlfriend E320 but the insurance does cover the hit & run at no cost to you. Check with you insurance company.

 

Sorry to hear about the hit and run but so glad that the camera's allowed justice to be served and that jerk to be caught.

Ask around and find the best bodyshop you can and while its being fixed make sure his insurance pays for a nice rental.

 

Make sure to get a copy of the police report because your insurance company will require you to provide it.


This is an insurance covered incident all the way.

 

Here's the damage. It makes me sick everytime I see it.

here ya go....

DOOR FRONT LEFT_________1 ______ 41517133943_____$291.20

 

Thats not that bad at all. Well not as much I thought. I that price painted? Probably not.

 

That is too bad!! Mine got hit by a hit and run a$$ but I wasn't luckey enough to catch him.

Does your (everyone can please answer this) insurance fix it with no deductable??? I had to pay mine but I'm getting on the phone right now and check on it. Maybe I need to change insurance companies.

nope, thats the BMW price for the shell. you will probably need new window regulators and a side window, judging from the damage.

i would say slap on 150 for paint and 100-200 install and that would be a good estimate.

 

I am sorry to hear that, track the people and give them a good lesson, some people don't have integrity

 

Amazing price for the door The stupid plastic scoop for the S is a $100 and without paint

 

wanna see something else that an amazing price?
