just phoned insurance an actually got through to the inspector who came round yesterday, and he said he is going to give the bodyshop authorisation !
called the bodyshop an he said hes ordered the parts so as soon as there in then were good to go....
now that side of its all sorted, i just have to wait for the decision on liability, which i dont expect to take too long as its obvious......Someone from my insurance is gonna contact there insurance today about it.....
