Well I've gone with Snows body repair in the end and I'm just going to let the insurance handle it as I want my car back to as it should be asap. Then I'll decide whether I continue with Seat ownership etc.

Deffo jinxed as I've been hit up the rear this morning. Got a sore neck and a buggered bumper.. Not happy. Some bloke who passed their test last week. Eastleigh junction of the M27. I'm sat at the front waiting for traffic when bang.. So oh joy. Their G reg fiesta is knackered.

holey cr*p mate, you aint havin any luck are you
hope you get it all sorted!


Yup probably going to get it sorted and sell it on. Then get another Leon, hopefully with leather etc. My concern now is the mismatch in paint, hence why I'll look to change it.

Neck is a bit sore at the moment, but I'll be ok.. They did moan about the state of their fiesta ooh that's worth no more than £400... :( I feel sorry for the girl as it's her insurance, the bloke driving was the named driver..

I've checked with the insurance company to confirm that they are insured.

Thats a sh*tter mate.

But at least that confirms my initial thoughts - all my bodywork will be going elsewhere to a smaller local company where I get treated as a person - rather than just a number in a queue.

I'd give em hell till it gets done - demand hire car/compensation whatever. Just generally let them know how p*ssed off you are.

Having said that, they'd probably do a naff job if you upset them. Like Jim Carrey says - "I can p*ss and moan all day long, but in the end I just have to bend over and take it up the tailpipe"
:censored:

hope you get it sorted as soon as, mate.

It's now booked for Thursday as I can't do next week is what I said. In fair to them apparently one of their loan cars has been written off by a customer eek.. and another one the customer has knackered the clutch.

Well I get the car back today, fingers crossed it's ok and not bodged.. With my luck in 2006 so far it's not looking good. They are getting it MOT'd for me too, thank god as it was due to have it done about 10 days ago, but it would've failed etc..

I'm looking for a new job too at the moment so fingers crossed for some luck on that. Fed with the NHS and want nothing to do with it, thankfully I'm on seconded out to them. Give me a profit and loss company please!! (Plus if it's well paid a late LCR or R32 mmm...)
