As I was at the Coastguards last night for training I got called out to the car park, a neighbour with a Nissan Navara had reversed into my car, >:(
He had a little dent in the rear wing on his and my frontend is fuba. But he owned up( Might have something to do with 6 coastguards as witnesses ) and sorted out a body shop to get it repaired.
so my mini mig is now in the body shop getting repaired at his cost.
I can only see the damage from the outside not what its like under the bonnet as I could not get it open.
so I get my car back on saterday.
It would not be such a big problem but I have Mot on thursday.
here is a couple of pics.

Ouch! That's not a very gentle nudge. Massive plus having the other party cough to it.
I hope it comes back pristine. :y

ouch - at least you had someone to bill :y

Not nice .. but.. at a guess .. mostly "cosmetic" as there's not a lot of "structure" in that area. Decent body shop should get it sorted so you wouldn't know it had happened .. :y :y :y
At least you have it sorted .. I'm still arguing with the insurers from November !!

New headlight plus setup.
New bonnet
New grill
New under light trim
Maybe slam panel strighten
Check the rad end and aircon condenser.
Make sure they dont use second hand parts.

Everyone speaks very highly of the body shop where it is, so I will have to wait for saterday to have a good look at how its turned out. I will post pics of the repair.
The funny thing is the lights are still in the correct possition. and the fob stoped working. ( got the fob synct again )
