well thanxs for all the imput guys and girls lol stripped off the sump this morning and found i snapped conrod and a nice whole in the block the size of a 10p, also got the head off aswell to check that for damage. i am goin to get the turbo off aswell see if that is ok still but as it stands the car is well fucked.

right here is the thing if i dont manage to get a claim then the car will be stripped and sold in parts as i just dont have the money to fix it. i am nearly in tears at the thought of gettin rid but i dont have any other option seems like right shit terms to have to give up my motor after i have had her for like 3 years.:(

well a little update nothin major, they are investigating the incident and have asked me to send them any evdience i have like pictures, witnesses etc and they need 2 quotations to repair the damage.

now because i need a whole new engine, the only place to get new engine from is toyota which is £££££ and the labour aswell (anyone know how much brand new engine is lol) so one of me good mates reckons they will try and class it as a right off which would mean lookin at the book price of my car.

not sure whether thats good or bad its annoying as they said could take a while to investigate mean while i am stuck without a car

Ask them if they will cover the costs of a courtesy car while they investigate as it not your fault and they keeping you of the road.

Good chance to get a forged one for your hassles to :p
