My car got broken into and is likely to be a write off because of the amount of damage he caused. the good thing is he was caught red handed by the police, so at least he'll have to go to court and hopefully get some time, or community service.
However, Im the victim yet it seems to be me who gets lumbered with all the costs? I dont have a car for work which i need, the police removed the car from the scene so if i dont go throught the insurance it costs me £150 just for that!!! my excess is £120 so the minimum it will cost me even if i go through the insurance is £120. I dont just want to leave it at that I woul LOVE to make the little s**t who did its life miserable for a few months. Id like to sue him and get his Xbox, Mini Moto and anything else the little s**t owns taken from him to pay me compensation.
The question is................. what can i do? or do i just have to pay the excess which is probably bigger than any fine he will get!! ps doubt he works.
Is there any government department i can call on to help me with the excess because literally I havent got a penny to pay this or buy a new car. Im basically fu***d
