... a car be written off?
Car got sprayed with gravel pouring from an unsecured tipper back in October... broken screen, chipped paint on O/S wing, bumper, both A pillars, roof and obviously bonnet. Had an estimate at the time couple of days to respray the bonnet/wing and to touch the rest in
A pillars and roof have one chip each.
Rang insurers yesterday, is I'd had the screen done and basically forgotten about it
, as had they
Anyhoo, third party have accepted full liability, so take the car to XYZ for an estimate. When I asked how long it would be needed for, I was quite taken aback when the bloke said "At least a week"
Front end to be stripped in order to paint wing, bumper and bonnet. Windscreen out and interior out to remove roof rails/aerials in order to repaint the whole roof
Apparently it also needs laquering...
Waiting to see what the response to the estimate is
