    Disco 3 (LR3) Could these issues be due to being rear ended?

    @Hippo Thank you, you seem to have an understanding of my concerns...if the faults are pre accident i fully accept that and wouldn’t expect the insurers to fix anything the crash wasn't responsible for if it is evidenced in some way because the only fault i was aware of prior to the accident was...

    Disco 3 (LR3) Could these issues be due to being rear ended?

    Wow really @biketeacherdave ??? Thank you for your prompt replies..
