Allied in Glasgow did a good job on mine but I think somebody will be along shortly to tell you that they didn't get the same result. There's another place in Whiteinch Glasgow that always gets a mention but I can't remember the name.

As a new fan of Judes, maybe you could try there.

At least you're ok.

Whiteinch would be Mitchel Inglis.. did a very good repair job on my clio 172 a few years ago,... but others on here don't rate them???

It would appear there are good and bad storys for any body shop.

Thanks all for advice, phoned insurance late yesterday & tried the 'back to Norfolk' request again but no chance they are budging on that. I eventually agreed that it could go to MMC (Perth), so fingers crossed that they do a good job.
Hoping it is taken up to them tomorrow as they said could do a quick assessment.
Think yesterday I was still a bit stunned by it all now starting to get miffed that some plonker in an A-Team bus ( LHD GMC Safari) has wrecked my baby. Still could have been much worse, I am in one piece and starring into his headlights :shock: at a combined closing speed probably iro 90-100 mph had me thinking it might have been the last thing I saw!!!


I will get around to posting on newbies in the next couple of days - in the meantime thanks again for your information advice and concern. Cheers Keith

In which case, Keith, be VERY clear when you book it in what sort of job you expect, that you are aware of difficulties in the past and expect it to be right first time. No apprentices to lead the job!

Good luck.

just seen this one - hope all is well keith :) Your insurance Co will do the digging to find out the TP insurance co, it will be on the Police HORT1 so not too tricky :) Your co will pay out in the first place then reclaim from TP together with your excess. Don't hold your breath on that excess being returned immediately if there's a dispute on liabity (although that sounds unlikely in those circs ;) )

Best of luck,
