    Just hit a badger on me way to work.. the SOB did a nice bit of damage...bumper, fog light, and radiator is loose. Sickened.
    im the holder of a full comprehensive insurance policy with hibernian, will this type of policy cover the repair cost? Just asking for opinions...
    cheers.

    Im sure they would cover it if the cost of the work exceeds your excess.

    The badger was probably on her way home to feed her starving, freezing badger babies!

    Well at least you didn't try swerving, losing it and writing the car off.

    You've never had a badger or an old lady run out in front of you before?

    Poor badger.

    Lads, the badgers gone. Get over it. If you can't help with the OPs original question then don't post.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,615 ✭✭✭kildare.17hmr


    May well work out cheaper in the long run to pay for it yourself lad, check the excess and if your no claims will be affected and get some prices

    I hit a badger about 3 years ago 3K damage done front fog front left headlight bumper and bumper spoiler all replaced via insurance (with Hibernian) cost me €250 (policy excess) but my NCB was protected if it hadn't been I'm not sure if I would have gone the insurance route


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,013 ✭✭✭Wolverine_1999


    Hit a fox last year.. love they way the stop in the middle of the bloody road when they see you coming!

    Cost me roughly €500 which was for a new front bumper, spraying and fogs. My radiator took a knock but it's ok..

    So it's up to you if your NCB is worth that amount of money.

    My Activa was a Cat D write off in the UK before I had it from hitting a badger (It's there in the job list :-) ). £2200 damage.
