    Neither should be legal massive price differences in same product with same details direct or price comparison site - it's fooking mental that direct price was nearly twice as much!
    That's what they do. And when they ask "have you had an accident that was your fault in the last 5 years" you can honestly answer "No". If you answered "Yes" then you weren't playing the system correctly. You should actually be suing the bastard for most of a years lost earnings, impotence (difficult to prove in your case, obviously) and severe back pain (easy to prove, if you can find a friendly or dishonest physio, which should be easy). This whole episode should be a license to print money, and you're complaining? And next time, buy a runabout, not an aspirational car, and you might find the lawyers leave you alone. I wouldn't bet on it though...

    £9000 = 900 handies at £10 a toss. Should be able to do that in a month or so.
