Ruth luckily just has a small tender spot on the back of her hip. Nice to have your husband the EMT nearby to come check you out.

She was on hwy 85 in San Jose and the traffic came to a stop so did she with 6-8 feet in front of her when she got hit by a Chevy SUV which shoved Kozmo forward a few feet. She said she didn't hear any tire skreech from behind but she saw the SUV in the mirror and stood on the brake.

looked underneath and couldn't see any frame damage, one toasted bumper and 2 dings in the right barn door. But we shall see what the shop finds tomorrow

 

Ouch!
Glad your wife is OK>

 

Glad no one was injured, and the car doesn't look too bad. A few other rear-ended Clubbies on here had mashed-in barn doors.

 

Oh that sucks...

Did the person that hit you have insurance??

BTW: I got my Clubman from East Bay Mini too!

 

They have USAA, so do we

 

That's cool. My Tacoma (Tommy) got hit once...the guy had insurance. But he never reported to his insurance company. At the end, I had to take him to small claims court. That bastard.

 

We get Kosmo back on Friday from the body shop. Total damage was just the bumper and the two tiny dents on the right barn door. No frame, suspension, drivetrain, or exhaust system damage.

 

That's good....which shop did you take it to?

 

In Los Gatos, Sent there by USAA its by a vet hospital on the road that passes by the north side of Vasona Lake. can't think of the name right now

 

OK....how was the service? And what do you think about their quality of the work done?

 

I will let you know on Friday when we get the car back

 

USAA is the very best! Their adjuster did a great job on my tree crushed clubmanS this week. The sure find a lot more wrong than what appears so be ready for a shock. ON the up side, they said the clubmanS is one of the best cars made with its double wall protection, which also increases labor costs to tear the thing apart to fix those dings and dents but keeps you way safer than most cars.

 

The body shop did a really nice job. no rattles good alignment and a good job of fading the paint

 

Alright!! Congrats on getting your Clubbie back.

 

Thanks
The shop is Los Gatos Auto Body
