Don't be lazy phill, do the search! :P

Others are paying more than that, for a rating 5 & 18yr old, that's in the right ball park.

After regular updates from both the inurance guy (I spoke with the same guy through the whole ordeal) and the panel beater resposible for my repairs I finally get to see my baby again.

The repairs come with a 3 year warranty, so if anything is wrong I can get it fixed for free.

I went to Gregory's Panel Repairs (I think) and I must say I am very impressed with the workmanship.

They went out of their way to get the best parts for my car, and managed to bargain and haggle their way into getting me a new front bar instead of a resprayed one (which actually cost more, but the insurance company didn't mind paying that little bit more.

The claims guy didn't realise that I had to pay the excess, so I could have walked out of there without paying... me and my big mouth :roll:

It feels good to finally have her back :D

Hey James, so did Just Car allow you to choose your own repairer?

Also, did they send out a claims inspector to check out the damage?

They suggested 2 repairers, and let me choose one as well.
I had to take the car to their claims company to get it inspected.
