Driving between work and Lincoln on Friday evening, at the end of a hectic day,minding my own business, and this happens :
2 motorbikes and a car were coming in the opposite direction. The next thing I know "bang", and my replacement windscreen virginity has gone. What annoyed me as much as anything was the fact that I was miles from where any roads were being resurfaced
Spoke with AVIVA windscreen department when I got home, and they passed on my details to National Windscreens ( even though the AVIVA website states that Autoglass are their designated repair company ).
Saturday morning I receive a call from National Windscreens, and the car is booked in for a replacement 'screen next Saturday morning. They could have done any weekday, but only up to 5pm, which is no good for me. I asked the NW representative if the replacement would be a genuine Audi part, and was told "no". The glass will, however, be the same as a genuine one, just without the Audi logo. Well, having read some of the issues that fellow Audi-sport members have had with non-genuine windscreens, I have, today, spoken with AVIVA and asked if I could have the real thing fitted. As it's a Bank Holiday weekend, they were unable to speak to NW, to find out why a genuine part was not being used, so I have to wait until Tuesday to see what is going to be done.
