Cool, that's reassuring. Bit poo that they haven't got back to you though, I know they get busy but still you'd expect some contact.

Did you see it mate? I've been at Disneyland so rang them on Tuesday for an update, it went in for painting yesterday. I'm hoping it'll be ready before the end of next week as I'm away again.

Yes mate that'll be great if he's ok with it although as I said I was in no hurry I don't think they are starting until next week. I did ask him to take some pics for its folder but I can't be sure he will.

Everyone keeps saying that to me but I've seen cars with it on and it looks manky when it's all chipped up, but it will save the cost of another respray I suppose.

Will do mate :up: The worst part is they will be back within a few miles :(

Marks the owner I believe. Let me know what you think mate and if you see my car :)

Their words were that they would take it right back and start from scratch, I'm going to ask them if they can take some photos as they go for my folder so if they will it should show how much work they put into it. It was recommended by a few local people when I was asking about so my brother...

Good point but they did say they would completely start again. Although a bit of extra weight at the front could be considered a bonus :)

I put it in to have a full front end respray as it had a lot of stone chips, when I went to pick it up I wasn't 100% happy with it so after speaking the manager he agreed that it wasn't as i asked for (perfect) so it was taken to Brewsters in Billericay who have talked me into going the whole...

Took the car in for a full respray yesterday, bumpers and bonnet off, lights out etc so I'm hoping it turns out nice. I'll update with pics when it comes back in a couple of weeks.

Sorry to disappear on you lot, we did walk around looking but I didn't see any of you again. I spoke to the bloke in the ph2 V6 that was doing some runs but didn't get his name, anyone know if he is on here?

10 miles shorter and 10 mins quicker going Brentwood/Onger :) See you in a bit

Cool I'll be in the Vee, go through Brentwood and Ongar?

I'm going to get on the A128 going towards Brentwood about 9:30 so we could do the halfway house if that's any good?

Anyone going form Billericay, Basildon or surrounding areas that fancy a drive up together?

I went and got my car back from the body shop this morning as they hadn't started it and won't until next week so no laughing at my stone chips. Do you go through the main entrance or the other one where they do the events and what way is the cafe?

Yep, I'm definitely up for this.

I 100% agree with the Kwik Fit bit but that's why I took it there, I wanted to get as much feedback as possible, I wasn't expecting the complications with the steering wheel though. I was told the rules had changed and unless it was rally prepared, so seats and steering wheel were changed and...

I normally have a "Friendly" MOT tester but I wanted the strictest one i could have to highlight any problems so I could keep on top of things. It never crossed my mind when I put the steering wheel on but I rocked up At Kwik Fit and before he even opened the door he said "I'm going to fail...

I've just SORN'd mine and it's all covered up in the garage, if I get the time to MOT it as its out in a few days I'll be there.

The originals. It's been on my drive for a couple of weeks so I could take it out as much as possible before the really crappy weather gets here and it has to hibernate. I think today may be the day looking at the rain outside :(

I have been on the lookout for a trophy spoiler but I haven't stumbled across one yet. As for the photos I know everyone has had it up to the eyeballs with edited pics but I thought it highlighted the cars lines nicely without going over the top so thought I'd stick them up.

The car that hit the X5 was a 59 plate Merc but I did ask them if they have my car reg matching an X5 and she just said yes like it was normal. I may as well bang my head against a wall than talk to them, they just say the same crap over and over again. I am in the process of going through it...

You could read it like that but i don't think its what they mean really, you would normally get the chance to dispute the offer and agree to buy the car back. I think they are trying to pull my pants down. Even 5k for the pre accident condition is a piss take, I couldn't replace the car for...

Co-op, I'm going to make sure all my family and friends do too.

I wish it was Daniel, it's been a right pain in the arse. I will ring them tomorrow mate, thanks. That's what I'm going to try and get as that's what it should be. I'll see what my insurance legal bods say tomorrow.

All I have from my insurers so far is they will persue any losses we incur, that was on Friday and got the letter on Saturday so I'll speak to them tomorrow. I've been on the case with the adverts and I also have the receipt from the seller so that should count for something. I will follow...

A repair was enough, once they said they wouldn't replace the panels I told them to just repair it. £2170 does not cover the cost of the total loss. Not even close.

I paid £8500 11 months ago.
