Make the authorities pay

My 6 year old Opel Astra failed the National Car Test for suspension imbalance on the front axle. The guy conducting the test said it was likely due to the fact that there are so many potholes here on the nearside that one side of the suspension gets all the wear and tear.

I am paying nearly EUR500.00 a year road tax on top of fuel duty so I expect decent roads to drive on. Has anyone here been successful in gaining compensation from the local authority for damage done to their vehicle by driving on substandard roads? The repair bill for my suspension came to over EUR 300.00
