Not having any luck with this car... - Page 3

So Markerstudy wanted me to give it to the cowboys at Prestige in Northampton (who aren't Audi approved) or bundle it up to Leicester - neither work for me, so I insisted on Castle Coachworks who are Audi approved but up until recently were on the Vision network and on the approved supplier list for Markerstudy. Being as they aren't on the Markerstudy list and my insistence, I may be liable for any difference in repair costs between their suppliers and my chosen supplier.

I tried arguing the toss but they pointed me to a line in the terms of business when I took the policy out - gits.

Moral of the story, read the small print and be careful who you chose, make sure you switch if you aren't happy when it comes to renewal time

My sympathies. My '8 got trollied earlier in the year - I'm fairly sure that it was actually the supermarket's trolley boy that did it, but never did manage to prove it. Scratch all down one side of the car. Seriously considering a dashcam myself - although not sure it would have helped in my case...

oh wow, I would have been hitting the roof on that one, its just so careless - I know parking spaces are smaller and cars are bigger, but irrespective of that, why do people not respect other people's property?

And she's back looking as good as new! Insurance repair came to £4400!!! Or in my case, just my excess, but I know it was done right!

That's looking good.

Did you have any luck finding the culprit with CCTV?

Looking very nice indeed, as it previously was.

Glad you got it all sorted to your satisfaction in the end, great result

Gorgeous

Really pleased to hear she's back and looking good.

Thanks peeps, nothing from the CCTV at Stansted or the Police, guess they are too busy fining the motorist and processing gatso pics... in any case, its been a pain, I've been down about it as well, thinking maybe I should sell her when I got her back as maybe we aren't meant to be together, or maybe its a magnet for idiots... but thankfully that feeling has passed!
