Pot hole - large bill

[hodroyd]

If inspectors are not registered blind and they "miss" a very obvious pothole, it is their fault beyond reasonable doubt, we tend to give in far too easy..!!

Yebutt they can simply claim it wasn't there last time they looked.

For the road to wear down to a pot hole depth of a few inches takes a bit of time, a lot less if the road was not repaired correctly originally, or resurfaced to a very poor standard. I don't get it why giving in to this kind of nonsense seems easier than taking them to task and winning your costs back..??

After parting with the biggest bill ever for car repairs I have it back, Had a nice drive home on Saturday morning from Kent, nice clear road so very relaxing. Whilst there I also had the new wheels, bolts & tyres installed. A few photos of the car, after getting home.

So before you put a claim in report the whole just act like a busy body type person and they may say we already know about that one--- or not but then you claim the next day job done

I checked and the pot hole was not reported so will probably take a few months to sort out. Went on about we can only fix the ones we know about. Anyway am in for the long haul now.

Btw- Lepsons refurbished the wheels & supplied new tyres. New wheel bolts from Hills Engineering, they also supplied a chrome saver wheel bolt nut which is very useful for the future.
