Has anybody bought a V3 direct from BMW and had it posted to the Uk ?
After miss out on getting one in January when I was in NY, I've still got the itch.
The exchange rate isn't great right now, but it's only going to get worse if the month breathers vote us out of the EU.
I guess with postage it'll cost me about £900 and then there's the small matter of 20% VAT plus whatever other customs charges they can make up.

How long is reasonable to wait for something to be marked as posted ? I bought a hub at a buy it now price on the 7th. There has been no reply to a message I sent on the 10th either.
The seller has good feedback for both buying and selling and for selling stuff in the last few months too.
How long before ebay would get involved ?

My suggestion Of S+G would appear to be bad, it's been a few years since I had any dealing with them.
Your mums injuries will exceed the small claims limit of £1000 (currently) by the sound of it they would also exceed a £5000 limit too. Once the settlement is over the £1k limit solicitors are entitled to their costs being paid by the third parties insurers and this is total independent of any settlement your mum would get.

It's just a suggestion, I've always found them reasonable to deal with often lead to a better settlement for their client, at least when I was settling the claim anyway.
I didn't know they were going bust, I haven't been dealing with claims first hand for sometime (thank God)
But even a going bust Slater and Gordon is a better suggestion than going to an insurance company and expecting a fair settlement for a claim involving a head injury unrepresented.

Unrepresented injured parties get a significantly worse settlement than going through a solicitor.

Each case is very different and this "sounds" like an open and shut case in terms of liability (it's been admitted).
But a quick settlement isn't always the best thing, as both sides need to fully understand the nature of the injuries and more importantly the nature of the recovery and often this require months rather than weeks of assessment especially where a head injury is concerned.
Generally yes whoever your solicitors are your going to need to chase and chase.
I'm now running mine with a 115 campage bb and the chainline is fine, not massively out and the clearnace is good
