I assume a gash that requires painting is not included?

Depending on how deep and severe the dent under it is, Rob might be able to massage most of it out from the inside, but if there is paint gone, either way it will require painting. I think also, if the dents are on corners or rounded/pressed lines on panels it would be more difficult to work out. Cheers Paddy |

Rear ended!
Quinn want to give me under 4k to write it off and leave me with the car. Damage is expected to cost closer to 5k to fix. I never had any time for Quinn before now (too many stories about them). Now I have absolutely no time for them! |

Is that the insurance assessors cost for repairs. Mine were quoting €8.5K and I got it done for €6k. Guy in maynooth and he gives you a lend of a car, not BMW though |

Its my guy's assessment. Its quite possible that it could be done cheaper, but I still have to wait until I have a cheque.
The current situation is that I effectively have no car (not even a hire car anymore), no money yet to fix it and still a feckin sore neck! I'll have to get two busses to work for the next few days making the overall commute to and from work about 3-4 hours per day! |

I waxed my car last week - for the first time - and I really want these dents removed! I don't know how they got there, but I suspect shopping trolleys or the users thereof!! They're very slight and in the upper part of the rear left side panel.

Just a thought on mine, the main knock I want to sort is on the edge of the door, obviously where a previous owner banged it off something. I know that some dents aren't really suited to this kind of fix and am wondering if this might be one? If its a problem, I do have a reserve car that has a few more traditional battle scars! |

@ Agaafear, I am ringing Rob today just as a final final confirmation, but by all means it still is going ahead and the date and time has been confirmed already. Time is from 10:30am Saturday 5th July, at the Spawell Hotel, Templeogue. With 2 cars each half hour after that. The list of names is not too long so shouldn't be major queues or delays. @ Dergside, some of the dents are awkward to do alright, if they are near seam-welds or formed lines, contours etc. But ultimately it will be decided on the day, Rob might be able to do something with it, and sure maybe try get both cars along!!! Update shortly when I make the call....... Cheers folks, Paddy |

Paddy - do you want to give people time slots to avoid having to hang around? Dry day? I don't think so! - http://www.met.ie/ Edited by Dergside |

As Dergside suggests, the best plan is to allocate time slots for 2 motors every 30 minutes. Can I just try verify who is actually coming along so I can try work out times that suit everyone? I have my NCT that day so I will have to try get done in the morning, but flexible enough on time slots.... Cheers Paddy |

Paddy As I'm travelling from the sticks a later slot would suit me. The car isn't the only thing that's a bit slow firing up on a Saturday morning! |
