    Can this be repaired?

    Happy days! My insurers approved bodyshop looked at the car and said no way is it a write off! Damage is about 2k’s worth of work, and they’ve valued the car at 5.5k. So perfectly acceptable to repair it…albeit a long repair. They have to cut the quarter panel out and weld a new panel in...

    Can this be repaired?

    Insurance came back with Total Loss but they are going to refer it to an engineer. Im really struggling to find alternatives to the a3 Tdi Quattro black edition. Any thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It’s a 61 plate a3 2tdi Quattro black edition with 174k. So probably yes, it will be a write off. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’ve looked around on the site for a fix for this but can’t seem to find one. This is driving me nuts! I’ve fitted new Bosch aero twins and it’s still missing a patch on the screen. Anyone have any suggestions on a fix? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
