another lucrative profession :)
thats my car :( happened last week when another driver carelessly cut across to the shopping market, without even looking for the oncoming traffic. I had to hit him.
took it to the body shop. know how much it costs to repair this damage ...... $4500! wish I could change my profession :)

Saran,
Kay yaavaari Saran dont get mad at him :-))
Jokes aside, hope you came out ok after the crash. I guess the insurance company is footing the bill, right?
yebba kay, eppadi keera. rombha naal ah aalaye kaanume. yen car paartha unakku pazhaya iyam pithala maadhiriya irukku ... mamo adhu kavarchi sigaram doi :)
hellboy, yeah the other guy's insurance is taking care of it. illanna kashtam dhaan.
:O
I'm not gonna buy a car if it costs so much to repair it! ;)
Its a big racket. And there is no way out. A dent in a new car means everyone other than you is having a field day making money.
i know quite a few ppl here who carry on if the dent/damage doesn't hinder them from driving. Of course the insurance guys will take care of the bills, but you would lose out a bit on 'no-claim' bonus.
chakra, there is nothing like a "No-Claim Bonus" here. Instead if you don't claim for a long period of time, your premium goes down. whereas if you claim even once, your premium goes up.
its tough to characterize this curve as exponential or linear, but always there is a huge positive offset when the insurance companies raise the premium :) :)
not only all the hassles now ...i think bec of this the resale value of the car also goes down....
though the car is damaged.. its good that u did not get hurt...
dei Saranyan,
I hear that you are once again secretly throwing parties without inviting me.
call me sometime.

hi saranyan,
coming on ur blog after a long time. sad to see the condition of ur car. but must appreciate ur sense of ... (i don know what word to use, cartainly not sense of humour i suppose!). i am saying so coz u managed to take a pic of ur car even under such distressful conditions. but yes one accident costs a lot, for u it must have been even more, i will calculate those dollars in terms of indian currency. god! it must have costed u a bomb!!!
Time to get a new car as Kalyana Parisu! Advance wedding wishes dude! Hope you're having a fabulous time out there...
super car!! mechanic profession is very lucrative, especially outside india
Sorry to see your car in such a state. Hope the insurance takes care of everything.
hope you are fine...
In SG also, the cost is high.. Insurance cover protects most of the time, except that the subsequent year's premium zooms up due to the prev.year's claims.
Thats right! This is one of the most lucrative professions around, and we all have been thinking that Doctors, Lawyers and Engineers made more money! :-)
HI Saranyan,
How are you. Long time since i came here and longer since you posted I suppose. We are all missing you out here in Blog world.
