At least they are paying to get it repaired I suppose. I could be worse. I've heard or mechanics writing off customers cars on road test

Steve,

Collecting your car with damage is something I'm painfully aware of - -glad to see you got some action!!!!!! In the next week or so I will be posting my experiences of using this garage for all to judge.

Iv'e always found them very helpfull and today once the OWNER came and looked at the car and said that they'ed sort, it all was fine again and they were very helpfull.
They then showed me round the 500 BHP orange wagon there working on.
The jury is still out!

Steve,

I'm really glad to hear your success, the dent damage to my car represents only one failing and unfortunately there are more - if only the director (owner) had taken the time to respond to my e-mails I'd be much less caustic.

yup, ive got a my05 and noticed a few scratches after being washed by the dealer the problem is that the manufactorers are not allowed to use celly paint anymore now it this water based paint which is soft a sh*t!!! and scratches far too easily.

(a huge problem with the Mazda RX8)
