Scottish Elises

Hi

My windscreen has always had a chip and small (1cm) crack since I bought car 2 years ago - thought I'd better do something about before it got worse. So went to Autoglass who said it was not repairable so would have to be a replacement. And can only be done at MMC as front clam has to come off. Total price would be.....£1049.15!!!!

Good job I have max £50 excess on windscreen insurance (unlimited amount) with First Alternative. Have checked with them and definitely won't have to pay or lose NCB.

Something to think about if you've got a chip, buying a car with cracked screen or are renewing your insurance company?

Holly moly batman!

Yup same pricing for me.

I think might have been a bit more than that! Scary stuff!

Picking mine up in 20 mins with a new windscreen, fitted in its entirety by RAC Autowindscreens. Mind you my fornt clam is mashed already....

Picked up, slight chip right at the front edge but hidden by wiper. Got a 3 year warranty against cracking so happy with that. CBA to argue TBH.

£50 for a new windscreen = happy bunny! I can see!

..scuries to check insurance policy...

Ta for tip

Blinking heck. I thought £800.00 for my Marcos windscreen, a few years ago was expensive. I think thats a bit rich at that. However if the insurance is paying it thats cool. MMM maybe thats thats also a factor in insuring a Elise.
