I asked my insurer for a list of garages and they said they don&#39;t have one. You pick the garage where you want to take the car. So I am back to square one asking for good garages :(<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Nov 29, 2012 at 4:51 PM, Odhiambo Washington <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:odhiambo@gmail.com" target="_blank">odhiambo@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

Whenever I take for such, I have to agree with the Insurance what the work encompasses - almost to the last detail. So when I take the car to _any_ of their garages, I know exactly what needs to be done - even if it means pulling out a panel and replacing it, etc.<br>




When I go to pick the car, it must meet those specifications we agreed on with the Insurer, otherwise I don&#39;t take the car until it&#39;s done, and I&#39;ll be breathing fire on any unnecessary delays because the Insurer is NOT doing me a favor:-)<br>

<div>So assuming I go the insurance route, which garage does quality work at an affordable price (otherwise the insurance company will complain)?<br></div><div><div><div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote">

&gt; Only when the total cost of everything is way below 20k do I take my car to<br>
&gt; the garage.<br>

Just the windscreen will set you back at least 16-24k. If you have<br>
comprehensive insurance, use it and have your wing + door replaced as<br>
well, rather than repaired.<br>
<br>
You lose out on the no-claim discount on your renewal but your car<br>
ends up as good as accident-free.<br>
