Car park bump

[trevorbayliss]

Someone has reversed into our rear light. It is now cracked and has a hole in the plastic cover. I think this is a mot fail.

We don’t know who did I it and think it was done while in the car park.

I am reluctant to claim on insurance. We don’t have any cctv on our car. So I suppose I will need to buy a new light console.

Any tips on how to sort this in the most cost effective way is appreciated. I think it will be expensive as a unit. It’s on a Volvo Ex30.

It is only a fail, if it shows white, where it should be red, or white where it should be yellow. Cheap fix, is one from a scrapyard, and DIY.

Bumper looks a little misaligned too

Check for further damage

One of those lights on eBay, damaged in the same way, £85.. next cheapest is is undamaged condition, £258

Part number seems to be 80000418

If you report to insurance your premiums may rise (you’re an elevated risk because you clearly take your car to places where it gets involved in accidents)

I’m not claiming as the xs is prob about the cost anyway. Prob will get one online.

The body work has been massaged as well but not bothered about that. Mot is not till next may so I suppose I have time.

Do council car parks run cctv and help you out if requested? I doubt it.

I’m thinking of getting some cctv put in the car. Any recommendations ?
