Wouldn’t be surprised if insurance industry between themselves tries to write it off. Parts cost, parts delay, then overpriced repair cost. Plus someone will try and make thousands off an ‘equivalent’ hire car by deliberately dragging out repair time. Therefore dont accept one of these, it will guarantee the job is strung out.
Guy at work had a minor bump on rear end of ‘15 plate Audi A5, prob 3k repair max. They dragged it out 60 days, Audi TTS hire car for whole time (what’s that, £200/day?) and bill for repair was 6k. I think it was just a rear bumper and exhaust rear section….
World has gone mad in the car insurance industry. No wonder premiums have gone up so much!! Good luck!
