Nice job done !!
« on: 02 July 2012, 18:58 »

Came out of work today to find my motor with this big dent, my car was parked right up against the wall in private car park giving enough room for them not bang my car with there door :rolleyes: :rolleyes:. I goes up to the NHS building and yes they have admitted responsibility, said the wind caused there door to fly open on to my car :angry:.
My question is who will fix this and do a good job? :undecided:

Well at least they admitted doing it and you can claim, this happened to me in a car park with my clio and left a massive dent right on the arch.  Never had it fixed but when I noticed it I was absolutely fuming, especially when a trolley was leaning up against my car.

+1!! All of my conflict management skills would be put to the test!

Personally I'd go through their insurance, at least then it would get a decent job done and if not you can keep rejecting it until they have.

That's looks nasty Steve...

But anyone with any common sense surely(considering the wind speeds at the mo) wud take more care in getting in and out of there vehicles...i.e holding on to there door when getting in and out, and if not for there own pride and joy to stop things like this happening esp as this was a avoidable accident... :angry:

But as said at least someone has admitted liability!!!

Feel for you man, hope you can get it sort quick.... :wink:

The paint is broken only slightly tiny bit, but the dents are on the crease of the door which is going to be difficult put right? As far parking goes its really really difficult around car parks but I try to make the car safe :wink: Can I choose where I get the car repaired or do I have to go with there insurance company ?
